• Question: Is science more important than subjects like history or philosophy? Why? Also why should we pick it over the others for further study?

      Well, science has changed our world much more than other subjects, but it is important to learn the history and the history of thought as well!
      The big error is to consider ignorant someone who does not know Shakespeare’s theatre, but not someone who does not know Einstein’s relativity!

      I think all subjects are important. You should do what you have a passion for. We need a mixture of people in society to work properly. Scientists can make awesome technology and learn about the solar system but we’re not so good at organising countries or making art and entertainment.

      You should always study the subjects you enjoy and the ones you think you are good at. But it’s important to know a little bit about all the different subjects they all help us understand our selves and the world we live in, just in different ways.
