I am writing my university application application, and want to explain why my grades during my exchange semester are not as elegant as normal semesters. I wish to express that I did not study them too carefully, and I paid my attention to something else equally meaningful.

So what formal and positive verbs should I use in

Prioritizing my research over the courses, I did not ______ them, but
rather _____ them.

The first blank should mean «concentrate on,” and the second should mean «neglected» them.

The best answer to your question may be: do not fill in the blanks.

William Strunk instructs us to «make every word tell.» The first part of your sentence is likely enough.

I prioritized my research over my courses.

What else do you need to say? Furthermore, if you want a «positive» sentence, do not include a negative word such as «but» or try to excuse your actions.

To more explicitly answer your question, I think the word «prioritize» is a fantastic word in this situation, and all of the other words I can currently think of are clearly inferior.

Putting aside whether or not this question is «in scope» — though I would say it is, since it focuses more on word usage than advice — the best I can come up with is «ruminate» and «was lax on,» respectively. Other than this, though, «concentrate on» and «neglect» work just fine.
