is ext 1 worth keeping ? (1 Viewer)

[vitamin D]

so in year 11 (now just started yr 12) i hardly studied for year 11 ext 1 maths and managed to get over 60% for the tests thorughout the year. I also enjoy all the topics and understand it. however in term 3 i literally didn't do any homework and didnt study and scored 8/75 for my yearlies. However the grade ave was 11% for the yearlies test (it was a harder test than all the other years. ultimately i got 23/50 and ranked 35/53. My question is that, sis it worth keeping 3u and is it manageable if i tried harder now...or have i missed out on way too much work to keep the subject

note:
-need ext 1 for my uni course.
-still did exceptional in all the other subjects

Pretty sure you just answered your own question. If you have 11+ units, keep it, give it your best shot, and if you screw up it won't count anyway.

wait why is this in the English thread?

Yeah I'd say keep it because
- you enjoy it
- you understand it
- you need it in uni
- if you've "hardly" been trying in year 11 and still averaged over 60% then you can do much better in year 12
It'll pay off if you put the effort in.

Btw this belongs in the maths ext section

Keep it, 11 units is the golden ticket

lol, OP mistake.

Anyway, you should keep extension 1 maths as you really seem to enjoy it.

(Mods, relocate this thread to MX1, whenever)
