      I took Physics, Maths, Further maths and Music! I loved music when I was 17… I thought I’d do it forever!

      Plans change! I genuinely was going to study music but I was told I was bad at it (I wasn’t but I didn’t want to appear in concerts and my music teacher told me I had to)

      I was allowed to learn with science… that was amazing!

      Maths, Geography, English, Spanish!

      Yes, that’s right, not a traditional science subject in sight- yet I have been a scientist for 10 years! 🙂

      In India, for the equivalent of A-levels, I did Math, Physics, Chemistry and Biology. I got 99/100 in both math and biology, I was so bummed! I thought I had answered every question right but the moment I walked out of the exam hall, I realized my mistakes. I still know the questions that I missed and remember the answers to them!!! Btw in Physics, my least favorite subject, I got 97/100 and Chemistry my MOST favorite subject I got 95/100! I dont know why I still remember after all these years but certain things stay with you forever!!
