All three are considered "HIGH SCORING" and a little hard work can bring you good score despite the fact that you lack a science background.
go with the subject that attracts your interest otherwise you'll feel much more difficulty in the subject that you don't feel acquainted with no matter how HIGH SCORING the subject is

British history is categorically scoring and a reliable subject. However, it has two portion paper I and Paper II. Paper I is comparatively easy than paper II which is totally unexpected every year. The dark side of the subject is that there is so many treaties and alien names such as James I, II, Charles I, Charles Edward, James Edward, to name but a few that are very difficult to remember. Furthermore, the positive side of this subject is its scoring trend and conciseness as compare to other histories. One more thing I would like to add is that this is interesting and reader friendly subject. ;) Secondly, I don,t know about psychology because I did not opt it but one of friend who opted psychology told me that it is easy and scoring.

I also opted British history for 2014,Its interesting subject,so far so good...

Hi,
British history is a scoring subject. In fact any subject can be high scoring if you have full command over it. I have attempted british history in 2013 and both papers were best for me. But choose only if you are interested in it.

my suggestions

AA...

British history is good one but its better if you may go with psychology... Geography will be a little difficult...

British history needs strong power of memorization/ratta as one have to go through with the strange names of kings and most are similar with each other which is totally confusing...I totally agreed with SEHER BANO's views in one of the above posts. please have a look at that.

While psychology is conceptual and easy to grasp, one has to extract examples from daily life, you can support your answer with examples whcih everyone met in his/her childhood,adulthood etc...

For geography one has to go through maps in detail. While going with psychology or geography one is able to attempt some of eds mcqs in a very easy way...

So i will strongly recommend you [B][U]to go with Psychology.[/U][/B].. No matter you have science background or not...as you do not have the background regarding British history...Further i will add that all these three subjects are considered high scoring as topper of 2011 was having all these three subjects in his combination...So go with anyone of these after a comprehensive analysis, keeping in mind your aptitude and interests of grasping one...

I will appreciate if you may share your other subjects as well.

Regards

yeah 2013 paper of British history was quite difficult even the objective portion this time was quite difficult....you should opt british history if u r interested in it....apart from the required books like of pc thomas norman lowe and sheikh qayyum do frequently visit bbc.co.uk....it has a section of british history it will help u alot in preparing for paper 2 questions that are general in nature and are not included in any of these books...

@ Nathanalgren:
I think BH in 2013 is so far difficult than previous years as it was full of unexpected questions specially in BH part 2... But I inspired by hearing you that It went best for you... Can you plz share your preparation strategy and the books that you have gone through while preparing it?? :)
