I would also like to ask..

Is it better to go for 5-6 subjects which have shorter syllabi and ones you are more comfortable with? i.e. Journalism, Public Admin, Sociology, Constitutional Law, International Law etc.

OR

Is it better to take lesser subjects (3-4) of more marks which usually have lengthy syllabi i.e., Economics, Political Sciences and History subjects?

For me, all of the above mentioned subjects are of interest.
