    Should I drop general maths?

    I'm getting about 70 - 90% in maths, it depends on the subject. I'm going pretty well in both histories and maths and music seem to be my weakest subjects. Plus I prefer my other subjects to maths. I'm just afraid that if I drop it, then I'll be doing too many humanities subjects and could...

    CAN"T FIND MODERN HISTORY SYLLABUS!!!??

    Well, I found it but I don't know what bullet points to study because there isn't any.

    Is Society and Culture good?

    I'm thinking of changing Music 1 to Society and Culture but I don't know too much about it. I looked at the Syllabus but it wasn't exactly the biggest help! So from a non bias point of view, is it a good subject? Is it lots of hard work?? THANKS :)

    Any point in doing a subject if you'll drop it in year 12?

    Ok....first what do you mean I won't have the option of doing History Extension next year? Also, the thing is, I can only do Ext English and Ext English 2 if I don't change around my subjects (which I think I need to do) So I'm not really sure. edit: also in Year 12, my teacher does...

    Dropping Maths in Year 12? Wise decision?

    I'm having that problem too. I'm doing general maths and whilst I'm finding it pretty easy, maths is still my weakest subject and I don't know whether I should drop it or keep it (because it's easy at the moment) I want to do Arts/Law and you don't need maths. Personally, I would drop it...
