Guys I'm screwed for Engineering subject. I look at the exam and I can't answer basically anything, and I got 48% for my trial exam. I can't fix this in 2 weeks on top of my other 11 units for which I need to study.

Should I stop studying entirely or do a little bit of work or do a lot and try to fix it?

My other subjects are like eng standard, math advanced, software, french cont and ext, chem. My lowest trial excl engineering was math and chem tied at 65% which I reckon I can boost to 75-80 in Hsc.

But of course I know that my bad score wil hurt everyone else in Engineering too, Even though for me it will be a net positive due to the time I can reassign else where.

What do you think?

Yes I'd give it up. Mamimise the atar contribution in other subjects rather than trying to bring up a score that will barely make a difference atp

Score bottom on your cohort for the engineering class so no one will be impacted

It doesn’t work like that. Keep that sentiment tho, just sit the exam stress free. Or just drop if it’s not to late
I mean its school holidays so I dont think I can drop. I should have dropped this after trials but that's in the past now. Ill just write random stuff on the day Im not gonna study for it at all. My rank is 5/10 in my school for engineering with maybe like 65% average for year 12 so I probably can't tank my score too much further but yea
