Hi guys,
I've been stressing out on what to drop, I just finished year 11 and I scored 80 for engineering and 85 for design and tech. I believe I can score high for design & tech although I fear the stress of the major work and also I'm not that bad at engineering, I know engineering studies scales better than design & tech so I've got no idea what to choose. Pls help, any suggestions appreciated.

Hi!

100% agree with what's already been said.  :)

Just wanted to add some more factors that could help with your decision:
- Which do you enjoy more / are more passion about?
- Are either of these going to be helpful post-school, in future studies or just generally in life?
- What is the peer environment like in each of these subjects? E.g. supportive, collaborative, or distracting, overly competitive?
- Which subject caters to more to your personal learning style / how you learn best?
