History is very much about academic writing. Be it SBQ or Essay writing, this academic writing skill will be needed in numerous subjects at pre-uni (JCs/CIs) levels as well as at universities. That being said, this skill isn’t easy to pick up. Either than that, questions are usually very straight forward and there can’t be any surprises. How many ways can you ask about the reasons/consequences of WW2?Geography maybe considered a humanities subject, but it is very much a science. It emphases more on theories like sciences rather than academic reasoning like what is done in History.At the end of the day, it really depends on which subject interest you more. That will be a greater factor towards which subject you would do better as your examination approaches. If you dont really know which you like more, pick the subject that you had less trouble studying. Less effort for better results = maximisation of time for other subjects that you maybe weak in.If you are asking about usefulness, both has their own pros and cons. Geography sets a good foundation for related subjects and fields. History on the other hand helps to hone skills that would be useful for many subjects. How useful is academic writing? Wait till you are told to write essays for science subjects in universities.
