    In my school the Geography coursework is phenomenal, they had to compile a 20 page study of Exeter as one assignment. Mapping, local amenities, making surveys, everything.
    I took History, so i'm not completely sure of the curriculum but from what i here it's hard work.
    I'm not aware of anyone dropping subjects, however i moved schools during Year 10 and joined Art hallway through the course. So if you have a valid reason then i shouldn't see why, although you'd have to catch up quite a bit.

    And lastly, no it isn't too hard really. If you meet deadlines, listen in class (everything is usually said roughyl in class, so take notes) then you should be fine.

    And i just realised this message is kinda long

    I was meant to go to Wales for a Geography trip but we didn't go because it always rained in the previous trips so the teachers decided not to go there anymore :|
    So we went to Walton-on-the-Nase in Clacton, lol.

    I never chose Geography because I hated it with a passion. My other leassons I chose I have a fair amount of courswork.

    Done 2 for French
    Done 2 for History
    Done 3 pages of a 10 page essay for Drama

    Done 4/5 pieces for English
    1 for Maths
    1 for ICT

    On all of them subjects there is more to come (apart from English). We are also starting the Business Studies coursework SOON! Coursework can be very annoying though, especially when it begins to build up.

    I've convinced our geography teacher to take us to Alton Towers in April

    He said fine we can, but we have to do a local study on the area, and then do some surveys on the site and weather it would be suitable for people to live there and all that malarki.

    I could do that with my eyes closed, now I can just go to Alton Towers and enjoy the rides ^_^

    No you can drop it and change to something else which is running on same days same time all the time e.g. if you have geog every monday 2nd lesson and at the same time another course lets say art is running the same times etc then you can switch in the first 2 weeks or so.
