    For me I like numbers. I love Mathematics.

    Counting numbers you can never go wrong. It is the basic thing to know in oder to survive. An infant had become aware on the number of objects than to say "Mama".

    For me, it would be Art. You can go wrong with that, but at least, it has a soul. It's a terrific way to connect with people, to share your thoughts, feelings, point of view. Creation is endless.

    I like math, too, but if you can only pick one it has to be language arts (reading and writing). If you can read and comprehend well, you can learn virtually anything else on your own. And your knowledge in other areas will likely go to waste, at least to some degree, if you can't communicate effectively.

    Exact science is Mathematics so that's why I chose it.

    I'm a science nerd, but math's high on my list, too. Even now I'm reading a book on fractal geometry.

      @LGramlich : Wow, Although I love geometry, I did not focus in fractal geometry.

      Crazyhorse; Nothing was ever mentioned about fractal geometry in our public schools. The more I learn outside of school the more annoyed I get with the system! At least I didn't depend on that system for my real education (which hasn't stopped since I graduated over 20 years ago.)

    Science. Anything with the tag Astronomy attached to it.Watching the heavenly bodies...so ancient, almost timeless makes one feel so infinitely small and yet we are part of the same thing that makes up the stars...so we are not really different.

      I'm big on astronomy, too. I wrote a quarterly column on it for 7 years.

    Communication arts. Math is an artful and logical form of communication. Without the art of communication, even science would not have developed much beyond learning how to throw a rock.

    (Gotta admit I am prejudiced. I am an artist.)

    Science because it explains how things work. We use science to find cures for diseases, to make space travels, to build things, to explain phenomenon, like what is lightning.

    Art, it inspires creativity!

    math you use it every day and it is every where. then science because it is used every day too.

    I'd say communication arts, mainly because if your wanted to learn more about any of them you'd have to be able to speak, listen, read, and write in order to learn anything of depth in any of those (or other subjects). Even in a time before textbooks, you'd have to be able to communicate with mentors or teachers to learn more math or science than you could experience without feedback and questions (communicated) from or with others.

    Science!

    More specifically, Biology!

    But I am biased since that is my field of study.

    Personal finance.

    My local high school doesn't even have it as a requirement anymore.

    But language/communication is still probably the most important.

    Communication arts. My major was English Literature, with a minor in Creative writing. Nothing is more important to me than that. But strangely, I became an accountant!
    In fact, I just blogged on this subject in depth on my last blog, if you care to check it out. It was an interesting topic to write about.

    I hated math until my senior year in high school because for some odd reason my counselor forgot to place me in algebra and I had to take it after school at another school to graduate. The teacher that was assign to the class was just there to watch us, so we had to teach ourselves. I worked by myself, got a B and every since then math has been my favorite subject.

    When I got to college I begin to like it even more because there were many different types of math courses. I was never able to add it as a minor for a number of reason but I did take a few math courses. At the rate things are going now with the economy, I am thinking about going back to get that math degree.

    Communication arts. Because being an artist is like being a scientist, without having to learn math.
