I am also a science student and i did business studies and economics in the last November session. I prepared the subjects in one and a half month and got A* in both of them. What i think is that commerce subjects are not that tough, read the topics thoroughly and then do past papers along with marking schemes to get familiar with paper pattern and marking criteria and you can manage to get good grades :)
Books for these subjects;
Economics: 'Igcse and o' level economics by Brian Titley'
Business Studies: ' Igcse business studies by Peter Stimpson'

i gave commerce and business studies this november and got A*'s in both.. just studied for 2 months and it was comfortable.
for commerce read mary trigwell jones' book, its a bit thick( over 650 pages) and is cie endorsed, for business do from igcse for business studies.. and then do lots of past papers+marking schemes... and A* is guaranteed iA.. and yeah commerce is the easiest subject i've ever seen, and interesting too!

I gave environmental management last June session and prepared it in just 8 days, its easier and more interesting compared to sociology. Therefore, i would recommend environmental management.

I found these notes extremely helpful while preparing for Commerce:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/60546107/O-level-Commerce-Notes-by-Zeerak-Ahmed-www-O-Alevel-com

Use Ken Browne's book for Sociology. Make sure you cover every topic in highlighted in the syllabus, and practice a few past papers as well. Also, I think Sociology is easier than Environmental Management, and it's easier to get an A* in sociology, than in EM.
Thanks a tonne dude!!i'll go thru these notes n yea sociology is much easier n interesting..I'll definately go for sociolgy:)
