And as far from the point of the optional subjects

My friend better would be to choose the subjects

Your self rather than us as we don't know in which subjects

You have interest and in which subjects you are strong

So choose the subjects in which you have interest

Best of luck

There are no subjects available which you have studied in your engineering.
But since you are a science student so you can choose Mathematics/Chemistry/Physics as your optional subjects.

Bur make sure that you are comfortable with the subjects.
You must select the subject with you are comfortable & confident to score.

In the state if dilemma you can first solve the previous papers of the subjects you wish to choose.
Then select the subject you feel confident & got good scores.
this will also increase your self confidence on the subject to score.
