Maths. I meant, how could you practically use the Pythagoras' Theorem in everyday life? I mean, a few years later you would completely forgot most of the formulas, so why bother?

Physics. I regret the day choosing it as my Combined Science. I should have chosen Pure Chemistry as it is easier, but I'd choose Physics over biology anyday.

And Principles of Accounts, I only chose this subject because I can't take English Literature. I'm pretty sure when I'm getting a job, I'm not gonna be an accountant...

Oh, and noticed that the subjects I want to give up includes numbers?
 
Well I'm not in to science I just can't understand it!
 
Right now it'd probably be Linear Algebra but I'm only struggling because I keep forgetting to go to class. :[ I'm gonna need a maaaajor catch-up by the time the exam rolls around.

As for general subjects? I couldn't stand English. I'm good at writing and at writing essays specifically. I was good at reading books and understanding plot devices and the important messages within them but I just... I can't stand subjective courses like that. If the teacher doesn't like your writing style then it's all too easy for them to dock marks everywhere and fail you. At least with things like math/science, there's a right answer to work toward and so long as you show your work and get that answer, you get the marks. I muuuch prefer that. :[

Too bad I couldn't drop English all through high school. It was required right through to grade 12.
 
Mmm, not really. I have pretty good grades in school. Okay, I'll admit it, I have GREAT grades. Yeah. I don't like saying it though. -__-
 
Welllll.
I'm in an advanced placement program called IB (International Baccalaureate) and you have to take Spanish through middle school and high school.

I hate Spanish. I really, really, do. I can read it, write it, and understand the concepts. But I don't like it. My teacher (who everyone loves because she is just so nice) is my least favorite easily. I can't speak Spanish worth my butt, and I just hate it. I want with all my heart to be able to drop it in high school and go take Stagecraft, but I can't. IB is my ticket to a good college.

So I truck on. I get good grades, but I just dislike it.

And you can probably tell through my long rant that I'm very pro-Language Arts/English.

This ^ I'm good at writing essays and such, but when it comes down to grammar and trying to find meanings in literature... I fail so hard :[ English is by far my worst subject, and probably the one I would drop if I could.

As for specific classes this year, I'd probably just hold on to them all. There's a couple that I find really boring and stuff, but none that are hard enough to make me want to drop them.
