47. Saddened by all the math and science troubles
but I am not surprised.

This is not meant as a slam on anyone, but we as a society should be alarmed when so many talented, creative people hate these subjects so much. I'm sure a lot of it has to do with the way they were (are?) taught, but there is more to it than this. I'm not sure what, though.

Full disclosure: math professor, excellent student evaluations, teaching awards.

I enjoyed pretty much all subjects in school. My least favorite was probably auto shop (I went to a tech high school), but even that was okay.
