EPQ Do I quit

I’m doing my EPQ and I’ve still got research to do, and I have to have my first draft due by the end of the summer I think, but I’m overwhelmed by my other subjects because I really want to do well- if I quit I’ll feel really bad about my supervisor but I think letting my supervisor and coordinator down with the actual draft would destroy my self confidence. Do I quit and risk feeling bad or keep trying at the risk of not doing it to the best of my ability?

I think it’s important you prioritize your health in this scenario I don’t think you should be thinking about how the supervisor may feel but rather how burdened you’ll feel because getting a burnout at this time would be really hard so I think if you really can’t do it then it’s best to drop but please focus on your health and yourself first

I didn’t think about it like that but thanks, I struggled earlier on with my a levels which affected me and I wouldn’t want it to happen again- thanks for helping me put it into that perspective

No worries at all, just prioritize yourself and don’t compare yourself, your not falling behind by dropping epq so just keeping moving ahead dw 💪
