I did both too...

To give it short chemistry..

I hated biology, the amount of learning in it to get a high grade is crazy! There isn't an awful amount of understanding in the subject, you just really need to learn it.. all...!

I say chemistry because it was more maths based, and you DEFINATELY did alot less learning.. It's not a stroll in the park, im not suggesting that for a second but i put a lot less time into chemistry than biology and will prob get a higher grade in chemistry..

I'm rambling slightly but if you have plenty of time nd if like to learn things off, without a massive degree of understanding (sometimes) required, choose biology..
If you prefer working things out, and enjoy less learning-off-by-heart, choose chemistry.....

Hope that helps
