‼️switching a level subjects in Nov‼️

‼️Guys I am a year12 studying RS with 2 other A-levels and I absolutely despise RS‼️ I did GCSE RS and found it fairly straightforward and I did enjoy it, but rn I find A-level RS extremely hard and I do not enjoy it at all.
Everytime I look at my timetable and I see RS - I genuinely cant 😭😭😭. What should I do??? I really want to drop it and switch to another subject. Also, the course I want to study at uni does not require RS A-level.
Lowkey ever since the first RS lesson I have not enjoyed the subject as much as I thought I would - as I did enjoy it at GCSE. It seems so different and I find it so hard‼️ I really want to quit RS. I hate doing the lessons, the homework, the essays - everything. I don't even know if my 6form allows us to switch subjects when we're already in the middle of November. I haven't spoke to anyone (teachers, friends, family) about this yet but I really want some advice. Please help me 😭🙏.

I think definitely talk to your head of sixth form, a tutor, any teacher that you can! Personally for me, I considered switching Socio for Econ because I hated my first few lessons, but ending up not switching and loving Socio!!! Ofc it’ll differ; maybe try to talk to a teacher of the subject you’re considering switching to and ask if you can sit in a lesson! No idea if you’ll be allowed though, so go talk to a teacher about it!!!!!!!
