Hi
Just wondering:
I am currently doing 13 units for HSC- Ext 2 maths, bio, chem, english advanced, 1-unit Religion and drama
I am a bit iffy as to how well I am going to go in the group performance section of drama- I just got the group and we are all project people not performers
Should I drop drama?:confused:
(Aiming for UAI of over 97)

If you have to drop one of them and assuming you're okay with everything else, I would say drama.

Drop drama.

If you don't want to drop drama but want some free time, drop SOR.

if drama is a social/artistic respite given your timetable has mostly science/maths, keep it.

your mind isnt a machine, you might cope better with a bit of creative thinking.

Drop drama. It's a time consuming subject and scales badly in comparison to your other subjects.

You would have to dominate drama for it to count the way you're going.
Drop.

You musn't forget that you are also marked individually in your group performance, as well as a group. Besides, by this time of the year you will have completed the majority of your IP, no? Why drop it after all the effort?

Have faith in the creative process, too. I'm the only 'performer' in my group but we've already come up with some great ideas. Project people are really great for brainstorming ideas, all you have to do is perform them, and play to their strengths.
