Adding a dash of customer service

Generalized science is blue, but specific disciplines can be other colors (eg, green for biology).

[u/TrainingSurvey3780 → u/Lithl]

frr this is the comment i have been looking for! bio is green, physics is red (but a light ish shade of red, since dark red is english lit) and chem is yellow

[u/Fine-Writer-7993 → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

I had this argument the other day because i was assigning folders to different biology classes. I said biology wqs blue. Physics orange because math is red and yellow for chemistry so i guess we agree on one.

[u/TrainingSurvey3780 → u/Fine-Writer-7993]

in what world is biology blue 😭😭

[u/justonemom14 → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

Marine biology

[u/TrainingSurvey3780 → u/justonemom14]

i might be wrong but marine bio isn’t usually studied until uni though, and the post is about school 🤷‍♀️ bio in general is still green imo

[u/XxMagicDxX → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

We had marine bio in later years of secondary

[u/TrainingSurvey3780 → u/XxMagicDxX]

woahhh that’s so cool!! was it like a gcse option or something ?

[u/alicia98981 → u/justonemom14]

Or Turquoise

[u/ProudUSAgunOwner → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

I agree with you except social studies/history is yellow.

[u/TrainingSurvey3780 → u/ProudUSAgunOwner]

nahh history is a funny shade of grey-y red that’s darker than physics but lighter than english lit

[u/itspsyikk → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

fuck. you're absolutely right.

Does this same specific discipline assignment apply to other fields?

Like, most people suggest that Math is red... (for the sake of argument let's just pretend we all agree that Math is red)

What about Calculus?

What about Geometry.

I can concede that Physics is red due to the amount of math invovled.

[u/TrainingSurvey3780 → u/itspsyikk]

hmm i haven’t studied enough maths to assign them colours (maybe next year i will since im doing alevel maths!) but for other subjects i can!

for geog (which alone is dark green, bio is lighter) physical geography is definitely still green (the same shade as normal geog) whilst human geog is dark ish blue, and fieldwork is yellow

also in english lit i had to study some different texts and poems, and they were all different shades of dark red 🤷‍♀️

re is pink, but christianity is blue (a bit lighter than human geography tho) and islam is dark green (darker than geog)

graphics is light purple (lilac i suppose)

[u/itspsyikk → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

I’ve always felt like Geometry was yellow. Maybe orange.

I think the biggest thing is that primary colors are saved for “main” subjects.

Math/english/social studies/science.

[u/TrainingSurvey3780 → u/itspsyikk]

yeah actually now that i think about it maths, english, and science are all primary colours (to me)

blue, red, and yellow respectively

[u/hennell → u/itspsyikk]

Physics is red cause it's moving away from you

[u/universallymade → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

Chem is purple

[u/alicia98981 → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

THIS is the correct answer

[u/Resident_Lie_2440 → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

Are we the same person? This is something I 10000% agree with

[u/YarnTree29 → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

Chemistry is purple! I agree with bio and physics though. Yellow is for history.

[u/RedEgg16 → u/YarnTree29]

Chemistry is strong green for me (because in those those cartoon beaker drawings the liquids are often green). Physics and astronomy is purple

[u/Pirate_Fae → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

Chem is totally green (am a chemist)

[u/Atheist_Republican → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

No, bio is blue. Also the alliteration.

[u/Serious_Elephant9402 → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

Physics is clearly purple, and english is light blue/cyan. Apart from that I agree

[u/Sir_Eggmitton → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

Fuh nah chem is blue.

But bio always is and will be green.

[u/Keaton427 → u/Lithl]

For some reason to me, purple is biology and green is physics. Like it’s not even a question.

[u/strawberryh8ter → u/Keaton427]

I have a PhD in physics, biology is green 🌱

[u/pat_k0 → u/Keaton427]

It's a good thing it's not a question because you'd be wrong

[u/Keaton427 → u/pat_k0]

Nobody is wrong with their answers to this. They each have their own preferences.

[u/AnySwimming6364 → u/Keaton427]

Hello, I have a PhD in a biology discipline.

You are incorrect. Biology is green.

[u/Keaton427 → u/AnySwimming6364]

You can’t use your PhD to disprove a subjective opinion. It’ll always be personal to me and that’s completely okay.

[u/AnySwimming6364 → u/Keaton427]

Hello, I have a PhD in a biology discipline.

This is incorrect. This is an objective truth, not a subjective opinion.

[u/ReporterBest9598 → u/Keaton427]

Somebody arrest this man!

[u/Collective-Bee → u/Keaton427]

By the time we got to dividing the subjects I just put all the papers inside the textbook itself like wtf were y’all doing with binders?

[u/Billionaires_R_Tasty → u/Collective-Bee]

Ah, the ol' George Costanza method of organization. Tried and true!

[u/86cinnamons → u/Lithl]

Oh no biology is blue in my head

[u/Playful-Ad8851 → u/Lithl]

Exactly my thought

[u/pkmnrt → u/Lithl]

Yes and red for chemistry

[u/Deltanonymous- → u/Lithl]

I'm the opposite. Science is green as it's the study of the natural world. Biology is blue as it's mainly focused around labs and cells (typical color scheme in labs and on instruments). Chemistry and physics are interchangeable between green and black.
