Need to drop something!!!! Geography or CAFS??? (1 Viewer)

[hmgibson]

Hi everyone,

I am in year 12 now and still on 14 units!!! Arrrghhh!!!! I know I need to drop something so here is what I am doing now:

- English Advanced
- Studies of Religion (2 unit)
- General Maths 2
- Business Studies
- Italian Continuers
- Geography
- Community and Family Studies

I can't drop english, maths or religion and I really like business and Italian so that leaves geography and CAFS.... I'm way better at CFS but that's just because it's pretty easy but geography is more interesting.... I don't know what to drop but I have to drop something ASAP! I'm currently doing my Independent Research Project for CAFS and although I did very well in the proposal, I think that my topic is weak and won't lead to a great mark for the report And I do average in geography.

What do you think I should drop and why???

Geography. Someone else doing Italian

You should keep the one you get better marks and a better rank in.

I'm ranked pretty high in CAFS, always in top 6 out of 31. Geography, I'm always right in the middle or slightly below...

If you're getting good marks in either of those sub's, then do CAFS.

If you want the better scaling, do Geography.

who cares about scaling drop the one that your bad at or dislike... you may not survive doing a subject you really hate

Keep CAFS!

 

[hmgibson]

Keep CAFS!

Yes but why? I am kinda struggling with the IRP though and that could be hard to bounce back from...

Watapple: The problem is that I don't hate either.... CFS is a little less interesting but Geo I'm not as good at..... Would be so much easier if I hated one but I just don't

CAFS is probably the subject I found most easy to imagine within the context of the real world, which made it interesting for me. But anyway, you say you're significantly better at CAFS which should hold you in good stead and it generally requires less effort to do well therefore you can dedicate more time for other subjects.

ah. just keep on doing the subjects and see where it leads if you want. then drop your worst ranking subject or something after the half yearlies or at the end of this term?

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for your help I ended up dropping CAFS today and I am very happy with this decision
