I don't know... I can't really remember much from school.
Probably the majority of my classes, but the one that comes to mind is Science. I don't know how knowing that animal cells have different properties to plant cells helps me much, or the charge of electrons being -1.

My language teacher's favorite word is Latex.
(He had a most hated word too, "fronha", which means "pillow case")
I don't know why I still remember this.
