Is it better to focus on subjects you are good at or ones you are poor at?

    If there's a chance you can score a H1/2 in certain subjects, is it better to dedicate your time to them, or to subjects you'll likely get a H4 in at best?

    It really depends on what you have at stake,

    If you've taken an extra subject (be it a 7th, 8th, or even 9th), you may be able to swap the subjects with poor points for the subjects with better points depending on how many subjects you believe you wont do well in.

    If you don't have any extra subjects to fall back on the best advice I can give you is to study one subject you like followed by a subject you don't like, study the liked subject for lets say 1 hour and then study the disliked subject for 45 minutes. You have still studied the disliked subject but it was made a bit easier having it in comparison to your liked subject.
