Quarter 3- Journal 14: Hard sciences vs. Soft sciences
First off, I think it's an improper statement to claim that either of these sciences is harder than any of the others. For instance, people who are generally bad at social studies are good with subjects like math and science, and vice-versa. I think if we evaluated one person from each party, they would probably argue on separate sides of the case. Besides, hard is a very subjective word, and what people consider is hard is not the same for anyone. Someone who spends all their life working out, may think that math is hard, whereas someone who spends all of their time studying may think that running a three mile race is hard. Therefore, no one should be able to claim that either social science is harder than another. That's one reason that I didn't like the beginning of the chapter packet. When they start questioning which science is harder, it was just bothersome. Maybe because when I was younger, I hated social studies, but now, I have a high grade in social studies, much higher than my math, biology or chemistry grades. So in conclusion, I don't think it's fair to say that anything is harder than anything else.
