Should I drop this class?

<p>I'm a senior taking Physics Honors and averaging an 80. I'm also averaging around an 84 in Precalculus. Those are my two worst classes, but I am having the worst time in physics. Should I drop this and just take regular? With regular, I can probably attain high 80s. I'm probably the only senior that won't be exempt from the physics midterm and final and I know I am going to do poorly on that. What should I do?</p>

<p>My reach school is Fordham University Lincoln Center. I know they really look at your high school transcript. Should I stick with this class, even though I'm doing poorly or should I drop to regular? I'm doing fine in my other classes. It's just physics and math that I am really really bad at.</p>

<p>I'm also applying to Marist College in NY. What other schools are like FULC?</p>

<p>I am really hoping for some scholarships b/c uts costs a fortune to attend FU.</p>

<p>Any advice would be great. Thanks!!</p>

<p>since you aren't aiming for the elite (how nice to see an exception floating around here) I'd say stick with the honors class if you can maintain a grade higher then C. Since Fordham is your reach as you say they would look favorably upon a candidate that challenged himself. Although you didn't exactly surpass the challenge you nontheless challenged yourself and that in most cases would be better then not meeting the challenging or even attempting it in the first place</p>
