Saving subjects for end of studying

I'm scheduled to take test on June 30th (work full time so only 3-4 days per week for prolonged studying). I've been using Anki as one of my main study tools and have come to the realization that there is MUCH more benefit to memorization in Biology, Biochemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Psych/Soc than Chem/Phys. Would there be any downside to completing content review for these memorization heavy sections and making Anki cards for the information to stay fresh and then start on Chem/Phys (less things to memorize and more math etc) at the end of content review?

Biology, biochemistry, organic, I get, but since when is physics about memorization? Even chemistry is all about principles, rules, applying them to new scenarios. My professors have always taught me to understand and work with the science rather than just memorize. It has made my life much easier, and I hope it wiqll pay off for the exam too.

I was actually saying Chem/Phys was a lot LESS memorization than the other sections. Sorry, my post was a little wordy!

I see, your post was wordy, but I did misread the "than" as "then". Thank you for clarifying
