Hi all,
I currently study Maths Advanced, English Advanced, Modern History, Legal Studies, Business Studies and PDHPE at NBHS [Normanhurst].
I'm currently considering whether to drop Business as I find my studying schedule to be rather content heavy and it is my worst HSIE subject in terms of averages. I don't feel motivated to study for business considering my cohort isn't doing too well currently and the wide knowledge of syllabus content required to memorise in addition to the other HSIE subjects, with business being my 'dead weight' subject. However, although I am doing decent for the other subjects with a rather strong cohort [7/16 for Modern, rip 108/124 for English, 15/24 for Legal, N/A for PDHPE], the same cannot be said for my Maths Advanced, with my current rank currently 68/74, and barely looking at a pass in terms of raw marks (Idk what the mark would scale to as Normo makes the papers harder). It is looking extremely likely that I also screwed up the Business Trials as well (I'm predicting a complete fail), but I am uncertain whether I should still keep business on as a safety net barrier since my Maths Advanced is not great at all.
So, I am wondering, should I drop to 10 units and allow time to focus on my other subjects especially Maths or keep Business on with the full 12 units?
