Gender studies vs us history

FasiehJ · #1 Tuesday, October 15, 2019

Hi everyone, I have to opt between Gender Studies and US History strictly on the basis of scoring. I have attempted both papers in 2018, didn't do so well in either. Besides the fact many of us work hard on our subjects, there seems to be a trend that I don't understand. How does it work?

I have seen a few DMCs and this is what I figured:

Gender Studies scoring potential was low in 2018-19.

US History was slaughtered in 2018 but yielded good scores (60+) in 2019.

So what's the trend? What do I do? Which one do I opt? I have 10 days to cover either subject, I found gender studies easier to cover than US history.

Advice and suggestions from serving CSPs / teachers / experienced candidates would be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,
If you follow suggestions from seniors, you will find out that US History has a very typical and relatively lesser syllabus which is easier to cover. Furthermore, no matter how hard paper maker try to mold or twist the topic, he cannot go far away. According to this logic, I think US history is relatively easier.

In case of Gender Studies, we can come up with more logical reasoning if we have a little concept of the basics.

So overall, it depends upon your interest towards subject.

I am opting both, so I think both are easier than other subjects.
