> focus on subjects you like and other subjects that you don't like just do minimum to pass To add to that: unless you are already very focused on what you want to get into in the end, if you have some flexibility in the modules you can take try to test out some things you might not naturally go for. A well-rounded understanding can be more useful at early stages than a focused expertise. “Jack of all trades”¹ was not originally meant as a derogatory phrase, and IMO shouldn't be one today either. Unless you have a specific strong focused passion already, I suggest specialising later rather than sooner. [1] the full phrase makes this obvious: A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.
