Well, if you're not going to do anything maths or sciency, then don't keep it. In fact, dropping it should technically boost your chances of 85+ ATAR =P

Well, you obviously don't have the motivation for it - so that's the best reason to drop it. Besides, we all have our talents.

drop it, lock it and pop it. It scales shit and you have no interest in it, it will only disadvantage you.

look mate, you're doing too many units
and general maths scales terribly
drop it

and yes, if you drop general maths, you can achieve 85+
provided that you do well in your other subjects..
