Hi all, I am going to take upcoming exam. It will be my first try. I want to keep it simple and easy(as everybody does). I want to know about subjects which are relatively safer, easy to handle considering the new syllabus. I am less concerned about scoring thing as all such trends have become dated after the re-shuffling. I have randomly picked few subjects but want to have views of those who have past experience of these subjects, are they any good? Please analyze this combination and share your experience of these subjects, and suggest replacements if necessary, I would be exceedingly kind of you. Seniors and anyone having experience regarding these, please enlighten us.

International Relations
International law/criminology/philosophy
Indo-pak history
Public administration/governance
Journalism/sociology/gender studies
