You have two choices, both of which you’ve just stated: drop the class, or fight for a B. Here are the catches: if you drop the class, it will help your GPA and give you a little bit more time for yourselfl BUT…you dropped the class. If you keep the class, it will look pretty good on a transcript, even though it hurt your GPA a little bit.

My advice is to just duke it out. Get a tutor, ask a teacher for help, or do whatever it takes, because, in the long run, it will be worth it when you end up having to take Calculus in college. Even if you got the F, you would recognize the material.

But, it’s clearly up to you. It will definitely be a battle with yourself. And, if you’re totally lost for ideas, talk with your guidance counselor and parents and see what advice they ahve to give to you. Good luck!
