Science is a method of understanding how things work. It is important because we need science in order for things to work and to develop new technology that is used in every day life. It is personally important to me because I really want to become a vet when I get older and I would need to do really well in science. Even though science isn’t exactly my best subject‚ I am willing to put in the hard work and determination so I may eventually get better and learn what I need to know. Science
