I am a rising sophomore and I am deciding whether or not I should drop English honors. I am going to take precalc honors, which is one of the hardest classes at my school, chemistry honors, which has some really hard teachers, Chinese 3, orchestra, and sports. Sports at my school require 6 am workouts twice a week at 7 am workouts once a week, so I wouldn’t have time to study in the morning. I am worried that if I take English honors, that I would be stretching my self too thin. According to upperclassmen, two of the three english honors teachers are really hard, and assign lots of homework and reading every night. Should I risk taking English honors, or just drop it?
If your majoring in something related to English, then you should take English honors. If you aren’t then it isn’t worth the risk of negatively impacting you and lowering all your grades. Have you considered taking any AP classes?
I will major in science. I am thinking of taking AP classes. I will self study and take classes at school. I was planning on taking APENG too, so I am conflicted about dropping honors English.
