So far, my favorite subject has been data science, which at the beginning, I didn't think I'd like it a lot because it's very statistical and it feels a little bit dry when you hear about it. But once you get into it it's really, really interesting and seeing how important the data is that we have, how to collect it and how it's managed and what you can do with it it's very interesting.
