So I’m in 3 APs right now. AP Bio, AP Psych, and AP Calc. I’m going to be majoring in Biology. Both AP Bio and AP Calc are pretty challenging for me. But my AP Calc teacher just sucks. I went to my counselor to see if I could switch teachers but he said I couldn’t unless I had this teacher in previous years, which I didn’t. So my only option is to either drop the class or keep it and continue struggling. I have a C right now and this is supposed to be the “easy semester.” I can’t afford to get a C next semester, because I don’t want my GPA to go down anymore. If I drop it, I’ll end up taking an elective that’ll fulfill my math credit (like accounting, marketing, etc.). I called all my colleges, ones I’ve been accepted into and ones where my application is still in review, and they all said that it wouldn’t have any effect on my admissions.
Do you think I should keep it or drop it? I know that if I drop it I’ll be able to get an A in the elective and boost my GPA, but if I drop it, I might get a C again and I don’t know if it’s worth it. The only reason I took it is so I wouldn’t have to in college. However, looking at my performance in the class right now, I don’t think I’ll even do well on the AP exam. HELP PLEASE.
