English all the way! But I was an English major in college, so what do you expect?

(However, I wish my math skils and aptitude were greater than my admittedly limited capacity.)

My thoughts echo Michael Penn's.

In school I almost always preferred Math to English. Nowadays I much prefer reading and literature to mathematics. I often think I enjoy reading despite most of my formal English education.

Math has it's strong points, main one being that there is a definitive answer, 2 + 2 = 4, either you got it right or you didn't. English can be a lot more nebulous - up to a teacher's opinion of your content, and how much of a pain in the ass they want to be over the technical construction - the grade you get is the grade they want to give you. That said, I still pick English because it was a lot more entertaining.
