      Sometimes yes. Other times no its very simple but that can mean its boring. I have been cleaning teflon beakers for a week. That is very dull – put acid in beaker, leave on hot plate over night, repeat with different acid. But the results I get from that boring work I have done will be great and exciting.

      Unfortunately science isn’t always amazing and wonderful. There can be times when the maths is tough or you need to lots of different things all at once. But you do get used to it. I now have a spreadsheet with all the calculations done for me, it took me a day to make it but now I say hours using it to work out my results.

      It’s hard at times but with some determination it is worth it in the end 🙂

      Not all the sciences. At school, I found biology easy because it made sense. Followed by chemistry because it’s fun. Not so much physics because I just didnt get it. I now teach GCSE science and Physics is so interesting. Perhaps I should just have paid more attention to it.
      Now, science is really interesting to me so I don’t find it complicated and hard just need to make sense and try to understand what I don’t know and it’s usually fine. Still have bad days though.
