Yes, i was really interested in Biology so found it easy to learn but I was pretty terrible at Chemistry and French.
I’ve learned a lot since then about how I learn things best which has helped me to better understand things i find complicated. Everyone learns differently and it’s important to find out what that is for yourself.

Yes, I found chemistry quite challenging and for some reason I found French much harder than German. There were also times when I really lacked confidence and felt like I didn’t always ‘fit in’. I was one of those people that was sort of ‘friends with everyone’ because I hated taking sides, this was good on the one hand because I was seldom bullied and got invited to lots of parties, but on the other hand it can be quite lonely because you feel ‘stuck in the middle’ – perhaps this set the stage for a clinical academic career were I am forever bouncing between clinical and research settings…wouldn’t swap it though!
Yes. I found the social side of school quite hard. I wasn’t ever one of the popular girls and being in an all girls school was tough with lots of bickering and fighting. It took me until I started my alevels to make some proper friends and I’m still in touch with them today!
Yes! I always found sciences quite hard compared to the arts subjects (english, languages, music etc), which came more naturally to me. But I really enjoyed the challenge of finally understanding something, so I’m glad I stuck with science!
