      Hi Sonia – my absolute favourite subject was probably chemistry, I really enjoyed the experiments!

      I did have a hard time deciding to do science or music, but I’m glad I’ve had the opportunity to do both, and that I’ve ended up as a scientist, I don’t plan on changing that now!

      If I had some extra money left over, what I’d like to do is go back to my old school and give a talk about being a scientist there. I don’t think any of the teachers that taught me are still there (it was a looong time ago!) but it would be great to go back there, and maybe encourage some of the current students to become scientists too.

      I’m afraid I’m so old I didn’t do GCSEs but I did ‘O’ levels instead (they changed to GCSEs just a few years after though). I didn’t do particularly well – I got As for English and History, and Bs for most other subjects I think. I failed Drama with a grade D 🙁 It’s so long ago I’m having problems remembering!
