Li Jia, my desk mate, is often the top student in math tests.In my opinion, it is not right for girls to think that they are worse at science than boys. They should be confident that they can also learn math and science well if they work hard. On the other hand, teachers should give enough attention to girls in these subjects. If teachers encourage girls often in class, girls will realize that math and science are not male subjects.
