Primary Attributes Vs Secondary Question

So Im looking at remapping for some skills, and was curious if it's better to do something focusing mainly in the Primary over the Secondary? I actually forget if you have enough to pump 2 stats to max, but I recall it being under max slightly.

What I'm curious about is if I should split Primary/Secondary Evenly, or push everything into Primary first, then Secondary, any suggestions?

The formula for getting SP is something like: SP per minute = primary + secondary/2

It's pretty obvious, that you should push everything you can to the primary attribute.

IIRC, a secondary point contributes half as much as a primary point, so for any given skill, your fastest time will always have as many points as possible in the primary.

However, if you're going to be training a mix of skills over the year duration of a remap, it's possible that some mix of attributes might give you the best time for a particular set of assorted skills. You can use the "optimize" feature in evemon to find the ideal stats for any given training plan.

For instance, a training plan that only included Amarr Frigate (perc/willpower) to 5 and Shield Upgrades (int/mem) to 5 would be fastest with an even split of perception and intelligence.
