Should I drop a subject?

Currently most courses are Linear, I would have to take the full two year course of A-Level. Currently, I'm a Year 12 student and am planning to drop History meaning I would have to take the AS exam this year. I love History and I'm really good at it but I feel as though the work is just too much. For uni, I wanna go into engineering so history isn't really a big focus compared to my other subjects.

But I don't know, maybe it could be important? Should I take the AS exam? Would my AS grade count? Please advise, thank you! x

If you think you can do better in your other subjects by dropping a subject it might be best to do that
unis would rather you get AAA than ABBB
More courses are becoming linear so the universities would take that into account
