Dropping a subject now

Hey guys,

So I made a topic last year about if I should keep Chemistry going into year 12 and I now realise it probably wasn't the best decision I could make. Is it bad if I drop the subject now for something a bit easier like Psychology, Bus man etc?

You're only a week into school. A lot of people switch subjects much later, and are still fine. Go ahead, if you think you'll do better in those subjects (or if the reduction in workload will let you perform better in your other subjects).

I dropped Chemistry about a week or two into my year 12, and picked up Literature.

Probably helped me not fail VCE; I did pretty well.

Chem is a demanding subject, and if you don't think you'd be able to cope for whatever reason and if you're not interested in health science uni degrees, then I'd drop it for something else :)

Completely agree with everyone else. It's not too late to change subjects now at all.
