Well, today's exam went ok but it was a topic that I enjoy (health and safety) so I expected it to go pretty well. My exam tomorrow will be harder simply because I find it less interesting. Is it just me or is it much easier to learn something you enjoy even if you spend less time learning it?

Of course it is much easier to learn something that you enjoy. If you are interested in a certain subject, you will focus on it whenever you read about it. While if you are not interested in this subject, you will be reluctant to learn it.

It's a shame you have to study the things you don't like though.

I think that is the same for everyone, if you enjoy something you maintain the information you need, I think that is why when you get a job it is best to do something you are interested in and you will do better as well as be happy, good luck with your exam tomorrow I hope you do well.

It just makes it difficult to prepare for an exam which you have to do as part of the course even though you know it won't be important for your future career - studying something you find both boring and of little use if so hard!

GOOD LUCK on your exam today. And I definitely agree. It is much easier to learn something you enjoy.
