My kid is also horrible at history, so I understand. You can take World history this year. Next year you can take Physics, US history. I don’t recommend Spanish unless it’s your native language. Literature test is usually hard for most students.
World history has a really generous curve, you might want to try that this year. US history curve is not as generous, missing 3-4 questions will not give you a 800. Physics and Math have generous curves, if you are a science/math person, you should be able to score high.
Collegeboard has published an official book on all subject tests. You might want to purchase the book and see what score you get before actually taking each test. If you do poorly at home, then don’t take the subject is my suggestion.
