No, go balls out and study your **** off for the final. You can still crank out a respectable grade.
I had a C going into my physics final senior year, I came out with an A-. You can do it, but its going to take a few hours. Put your head down and do it, when you're in the adult world, the easy way out won't be an option so you might as well prepare for it.

Are you trying to get a good grade in it or do you just not care? If you want a good grade and plan on taking it again in the spring anyway, you could consider dropping it, but continueing would make it a little easier in the spring because you will have more info. But If you don't need the class and a D is going to kill your GPA and its ok to drop, then you ahead and drop it, that would be smart.
If you ever need help in math give me a shout, I tutor in that class ; )

Here's the deal.
I would recommend not dropping out. The thing is, colleges like to see that you're challenging yourself. If they see a dropped class, they think you'll do the same again.
Therefore, go in and ask questions to your teacher. Stay after for help. This will really bump up your grade. It's a great subject when you understand it.

Do you feel you can do better than this? If yes, go talk with your teacher ask him or her what can you do to raise the grade. Secondly, you could take it for summer school this summer before college if your plan is to go to college. If you don't need the class to graduate and your other grades are good then I would look at dropping it. Also, talking to your parents or counselor can help you make that decision.

The answer to that question lies in u, do u think u can do better in there? If u can, dont give up and keep trying, but if it is unachievable, then you might consider dropping it, as it might affect your credits and could drop ur final averaged GPA, which most colleges look at if ur intending on going down that route.

If you think there is nothing you can do for passing it (while learning something) or that doing your best for it would affect your other classes, drop it.
It is always good to try hard so you would get rid of it at once, but if your situation is more about being realistic than just being nagged or just lazy, better do something now than being sorrow later.

Depends. I would talk to you teacher first and ask if there is someone who can tutor you or if you could meet with the teacher a couple times a week to improve your grade and try to understand the class. Otherwise, discuss dropping the class with your guidance counselor. Personnaly, I would try to push my grade up to a C- at least. You can do it!

I'd get a tutor first. They might be able to make it clearer to you. We didn't get the opportunity to drop classes when I was in high school and I never dropped one in college. I just stuck with it. Good luck!

Yes! GPA matters more than classes. Also make sure that class is not required for whatever college ure planning on going..:-)
