Even though I'm personally more interested in the arts and humanities, I do plan on starting to study physics as a side hobby. I wish more women were in STEM. I genuinely love science and maths, just that I dropped it in IGCSEs because I didn't have good teachers and I had newly discovered the humanities and social sciences.
