i have been busy last week with study vs i have been busy last week with subjects

Both phrases have some issues. The first phrase 'i have been busy last week with study' should use 'studies' instead of 'study' to refer to the act of studying. The second phrase 'i have been busy last week with subjects' is more appropriate if you are referring to specific subjects you were studying. However, it would be clearer to specify the subjects you were busy with.
