Title: What colour would each subject be?
Post by: Owlbird83 on April 23, 2021, 09:50:13 am
This was a discussion that seemed to come up a lot in my high school, where our class would have arguments about which colour a certain subject is. Is this common in other schools too?

What I mean by this is eg. what colour folder would you delegate for that subject if you had a choice / what colour you'd colour in that subject in your schedule / just the vibes of the subjects corresponding with a colour .

My personal opinion:
English - pink /(red)
Maths - blue/(black)
Biology - green
Physics - purple
Chemistry - grey/clear/(blue)
LOTE - yellow/orange

I don't have too much of an opinion on humanities subjects as i didn't really do them in later years of high school, would be interesting to hear if there are certain colours that are associated with the hums subjects!

I think it seemed common for some people to argue that biology was blue, and chemistry was green, but why??? Also English and maths being blue and red respectively.

What are your opinions on the colours of your subjects? Do you think this is a waste of energy to think too much about this?

Going by my old folder colours:

English was dark blue for me
Chem was green (favourite colour and subject so it goes hand in hand :D )
Methods was blue
Spesh was pink
Physics was yellow

English - Red
Maths - Blue
Biology - Green
Chemistry - Also green

I think humanities subjects are colours are things like Orange/Peach/Burgandy

i will FOREVER stand strongly by the fact that

ENGLISH = RED
MATHS = BLUE

the other subjects kind of switch around for me, but generally science = green?

English is green, Maths is blue (darker being harder), History is red, Texts is light yellow (I won't murder your eyes by putting that colour in!). Those were the colours I associated in my mind, but didn't really use. I also associate fonts with subjects (does anyone else?):
English - Playfair Display
Methods - Times
History - Cardo
Texts - Montserrat

english: blue / dark colour
maths: red
legal: pink (fave colour + subject)
science: MUST be green
any other humanities/business: fun bright colours or dark if the subject sucks (eg. economics haha!)

Love this topic!

For me:
English: Purple - for some reason the feeling of writing essays felt like the colour purple? (I love purple so idk why this combo 😂)
Physics: Orangeeee
Chemistry: Red/Pink - for some reason chemical reactions remind me of these colours
Methods: Blue
Spec: Grey (because it was not fun lol)
Art: Yellow as it’s filled with joy and expression
