Question: my nan said that you have to be good at science to become a scientist is this true ?

Well it certainly helps, but you don’t have to be good at all science at school. When you are at school people think that science is just what you are taught and that it is limited to biology, physics and chemistry, but when you get beyond sixth form or college you realise the field is massive and I’m sure there is some part of science you are good at so you could be a scientist no problem, you just need to find what you like!
