To start off this topic, I'd like everyone to say what subjects they are best at and why. If you're good at all, then simply state your studying/learning style.

Personally I am good at most subjects involving calculations or making it sound like I know what I am talking about, since I am both precise and... er... wordy when I need to be. My memory and attention span, as expected for a slightly Wind elementa, are not that good unless I visualize. I often do too many things at once, but manage fairly well.

I hate when I am told to pay attention in class, because I bore easily and therefore lose concentration.

Already, this is interesting. I'm good at Math and Sciences, but not really Literature. I write well, but that is probably only because I used to read a lot and got a lot of practice. I personally don't think I write very well, I just have good grammar and therefore get good grades on essays.

Yet your elementa and mine are close... curioser and curioser.

ice-water...dominate ice

horrible in biology, buisness, english and any english related courses

good in computers and have a keen mind for philosophy, also artistic and creative areas are good

i have a funny knack where i have an interest but im simply bad at it, such as math, chemistry and physics

~scribbles notes~

So far it seems that they switch back and forth as you move around the circle, but I won't make any conclusions yet. Need more data. Keep it coming whee

I forgot to say that history is my best subject I learn something about an ancient war or some great person and I can remember everything.

I like to doodle, and like things that let me explain myself abstractly.. uhh philosophy I guess. I dunno.. I cant pay attention that long so most other subjects are out of the question.

English is easy hands down. i love the play Hamlet its such a great story provided u understand it. anyway anyclass is easy for me seeing how i pay attention to every painstaking word. cept mathmatics well acutally it depends cause i lose intrest in lecturing and seem to space out and sketch/doodle. as long as i understand its easy, but when i dont pay attention well urm ya sweatdrop

Ice-Water balanced.

Calculations yes, for fun. Interested in sciences, but mostly in the practical application thereof. (HATES! too much theory)

Seem to have a knack for languages and music.

Hm... is it that there is no concrete form, or simply that the fluctuation rate is higher, as one goes around the circle, than most things? Sage Ciara's answers intrigue me most.

I am not actually sure if I am good at Biology myself. Oh, sure, I can repeat what I am taught, but does that actually mean I know?

Perhaps it is a matter of abstract versus concrete concepts. Maybe we can look at it from that perspective instead.

Theory:

i think ice elementa need to be more concrete, what i can gather most ice elementas tend to have interest in science and calculations but do not care much for literature type topics and i think english is more on the abstract side...

water elementa seem to be on the creative side, Dana C Scott an ice-water balanced elementa mentioned she likes languages and music, i myself want to learn many languages plus i play the piano and clarinet plus my interest in philosophy, and if its true that ice is concrete and technical, it has to be water that is responsible for these creative interests

well just my theory anyway

Hey everyone... finally here and alive after school and hurricane chaos. But now that I have nothing to do until Oct. 11th, I can post. HI EVERYONE!!! Stupid Hurricane Ivan.

Honestly, I do best in English, Writing, and Ancient History.

History and most Math fit after.

Then Government related things and Science.

Computer and Art classes are also rather easy, but I hardly do those. Never seem to challenge me enough. I love honors courses for the challenge. Don't know if that's a shade or water habit though.
