I’m currently preparing for the AP Chemistry and AP Physics C: Mechanics exams in May. I’m intending to major in Computer Science. I’m very good at chemistry and an above average student when it comes to physics. I feel like I could easily get a 780 or more in the Chemistry Subject Test but do not know if it’ll be a great addition to my college application since I’m already writing the AP. So would it be recommended to spend time and prepare for the subject test or should I rather spend more time with the physics subject test?
It depends. If the college requires/recommends Subject Tests, then yes, it would be beneficial. If not, then it’s probably neutral, although a solid score can never hurt.
For any US college, the AP exam will carry little to no weight in the admissions process.

I was wondering if I could get support, tips, or study advice. I’ve been doing decently well on Chem Part IIs, but the Part Is always throw my off, and I can’t score above a three on these tests. I only have 22 days. What should I/can I do to get these scores up to at least a four?
@Flugel365 Prep book, youtube, and practice.
Agreed.
To answer another question:
The physics Subject Test covers a lot of material beyond the scope of AP Physics C: Mech, so prepare to do a lot of outside prep.
