Got bad results for 2u maths, should I drop 3u? (1 Viewer)

[CaptainPrice]

Half yearlies just went by and I recently received my results for the 2u test the other day. Didn't do too well in the ext test and received 75% in 2u :/
Most of my friends got 85% +
Should I drop ext maths, (I think I'm probably last in the entire class)?
I want to get at least a 96+ ATAR and go for medicine at uws or better
If not, any tips for studying in holidays?
Btw, we haven't received them back just gotten the marks

Did your bad results come as a result of a lack of study/preparation or because you genuinely could not grasp the concepts? If it is the latter then I suggest you drop it if you continue to do badly in your assessments. However, if you have the ability to grasp concepts and all that is required is more commitment or practice, then keep it. You're going to have to work hard in year 12 regardless, so try and do subjects that will be worth your effort. You have a whole year+ to hone your skills in both 2u/MX1 and if you can pull it off, it will indeed be advantageous to your atar. So, even if you are currently coming last, you can embrace the beauty of Preliminary and improve.

In terms of study, target what you are lacking in (ask your teacher/check your paper) and attack it these holidays.
