Poor AS-Level Grades
I got my AS results a few months ago and I got Bs in Physics, Math and Biology and a C in Chemistry. I expected all As so I was devastated. I plan to apply to some good universities for Electrical Engineering but my morale is lower than ever. What can I do to improve? I'm finding A2 slightly easier than AS.

Hey so im exactly in the same position as you, most schools have predicted grades finalised at the end of September so ask teachers if you can do any exams over summer

Drop Chemistry now.
You dont need it and dropping it may allow you to lift your grades in the other subjects.
Remember - AAA will always look better than ABBB.

Will it affect my prospects of studying electrical engineering?

No, because Chemistry isnt a required A level subject for EE, and Maths is usually the only specified subject :
York - Electronic and Electrical Engineering (BEng) - Undergraduate, University of York - Maths
Leeds - Electronic and Electrical Engineering MEng, BEng | University of Leeds - Maths
Birmingham - Electronic and Electrical Engineering BEng - University of Birmingham - Maths
Sussex - Electrical and Electronic Engineering BEng : University of Sussex - Maths
Leicester - Electrical and Electronic Engineering BEng | University of Leicester - Maths
Etc etc.
