Reading the reminiscencing over school books and studies, it occurred to me the other day that approximately 66.66% (one of my Maths teachers insisted on precision!) of what I studied and/or learnt at Grammar School was of no use whatsoever when I entered the world of earning a living. Physics was probably the subject most relevant to my various careers, followed by Maths, English Grammar, and the meteorology part of Geography. As for the rest, I think I forgot most of it after a year or two.
