I only really go for the last one in a pinch, unless I'm just feeling really lazy or have something else that I'd rather be doing.
Over all, I'd have to say something that you enjoy above the other two. My oppinion's formed by enjoying the things that I do best though.

I do something I enjoy unless like I have to half ass something last minute, then I do something I'm very good at, bullting my way through stuff.

Enjoying something you're good at

[Araciel]

depends on the venue. in highschool i would say go for easy marks, but i never had lofty aspirations for college/university, and even though i was going into what i wanted (english/philosophy) both were, to me, easy credits, since i enjoy writing essays, and english was always mandatory anyway.

in college/university...well it depends on how you want your career lifestyle to work. if you want to do something you enjoy, pick something you enjoy. if you want to do something you find easy, pick something easy. if you want to do something that makes you a lot of money, pick something that will net you a lucrative career.

Exactly. History and English have always been the two subjects I've been best at and the ones I've generally enjoyed the most. If a subject is interesting and I enjoy it, I'll be more willing to pay attention and put the hours in so enjoyment would generally lead to academic success.
