What subject(s) did your school board make mandatory to take, but think it was a complete waste of time?

@helenS History was and still is my top favorite subject.

@Sidewinder Sure, but the way we learned about history in school.

@helenS It's like schools do it backwards by starting with ancient history and move forward. Seems like history should start yesterday and work backwards, start with who and where we are now and where we came from and how and why others came to be.

Also, history should be blended with geography, somewhat, so kids can learn how the world all fits together, with people and places.

@helenS I didn't just learn history in the classroom.

I made it a hobby of mine.

Every moment of free time I got, I would read and memorize articles from encyclopedias and books about various historical events and watch documentaries films that are set in various historical time periods.
