In the end, I did Electronic Engineering. But according to this study, Engineering is way down the list. Chemistry, which is the subject in which I always did best at a theoretical level, is second last. This probably reflects my total inability to  do accurate lab work. Even I could see the writing on the wall there. English, which I consistently fail, is at the end, where it belongs. This represents the dichotomy of using the web. I have to write to express my views. But, alas, writing is perhaps my worst skill.  At least I have learned to use the spell checker in most cases before I post.
