If both are required, why ask?
I'd go for Chemistry, but that's a personal opinion. The two are like cats and teatowels - utterly different.
Waaait... I've just realized, this summer-school doesn't seem to be purely optional for you. In which case, I'd take the History/Geography in summer, and have the Chemistry as a spark of brilliance in an otherwise terminally dull autumn.
