You should opt that if you have strong background and have deep interest toward this subject. Secondly you must have choose 100 marks subject more from that group. So compare your strengths and weaknesses and then go for that.

Obviously, why should not?

But i have selected accounting also as optional subject an statistics too ? can you proper guide me in this matter please ?

If you have opted Statistics then you have to select another subject of marks 100 from this group-2. It has been written in the rules document that you can opt a subject carrying 200 marks or two subjects of marks 100 each.

Its a good subject if you are really good at it. However, as per rules, you will have to opt Geology, Applied Maths, or Pure Maths alongwith Stats.

All the best in case you opt it. :)

It's your call. I opted Business Ad and scored above 70.

If you have studied Business Ad, its better to stick with that.

Thanks Amin.
