So I've almost finished my prelim exams and subject selections for year 12 are coming up and I hate advanced English with an absolute passion, but I'm doing decent and my teacher wants me to stay up (she's a shocking teacher though). My marks in the assessments this year have been 14/20, 14/20 and 15/20 and I was ranked 52/77 in my first semester report. Dropping would probably give me more time to focus on other subjects (mainly SOR2 and PE where I could improve) and I'm only aiming for a 75-80 ATAR, so is it worth dropping?

It's up to you, they're still the same course just different texts. So if you hate english now, you're gonna hate it regardless if you drop.

Since you're only going for 75-80 and your marks really don't seem that bad seeing as though you hate english, i would say keep it, tolerate it. You'll be keeping up with same workload if you go to standard meaning that you still won't have any extra time to devote to your pe or sor 2.
