School exams and experiences

1:21

Well, I took all of the normal exams we do in the UK, GCSEs and then A-levels.

1:21

These are school exams.

1:23

And then university degrees. How about you?

1:27

Yeah, I am the same.

1:29

I went to school in the UK and did all the same exams probably that you did.

1:35

Did you like school?

1:37

Yes, I did like school.

1:40

I think I just liked being with my friends,

1:43

and I thought most subjects were quite interesting.

1:47

Yeah, I think I'm the same.

1:49

What were your favourite subjects, Beth?

1:52

I really liked English,

1:55

which sounds quite predictable, because now English is part of my job.

2:02

But I also quite liked textiles,

2:07

which was a subject all about how to make clothes,

2:11

and I made a hat. So it was quite a practical subject, and I enjoyed that.

2:17

Do you still wear the hat?

2:20

I do not. It was not a good hat.

2:24

What was your favourite subject?

2:26

I also liked English, but I think my favourite subject was history.

2:32

Hm, OK. What about your least favourite subject?

2:36

That's easy! Maths. I hate maths.

2:39

— You still hate maths? — I still hate maths!
