So in an nutshell, I had mocks about 2 weeks back. I got my results last week, CEUU. Yes it's bad, but I didn't revise for any of them and I didnt care. I was planning to actually study around now.
But now the school has presented me with a problem, I've been determined to drop English and focus on Economics, History and R.S instead. But because of the mocks and the fact I got a C in English, the school is telling me they won't allow me to drop English and I should drop something else.
However I've always been very interested in the 3 other subjects, and I detest English in every way.
They said, if I get C's in the mock resits (that are taking place now, bare in mind I've only got the results a few days ago, I have to turn a U into a C), then I could probably drop English.
My concern is that I'm pretty sure this decision of dropping an AS is up to me, and that they can advise me about what to do but not literally force me to do something I'm uncomfortable with. Ive always been a ****ty student in my English classes and consistently never worked properly and get lacking grades, I dread every single lesson and I've decided to focus on subjects on which I have genuine interest.
So yeah, are the school allowed to say 'no' to my decisions?
Also, if I want to do Law for a degree, do I really need English? (which they've been telling me.)
cheers
