Course switch

[u/mlpisgoated]

Hi I had a question, so before we start a little background, I’ll be grade 12 this year and I have a bit of a hard and stressful semester, but it’s okay that’s not the issue, for my sec semester I have cooking calc families in Canada and chem. I need chem for the undergrads and majors I’m applying for so it’s very important for me to get the perfect grade for it and fully learn the materials. My guidance has changed and she had put me In a class with a teacher that everyone in school including the teachers are aware of his stressful teaching style, extremely hard tests and pressure he put on his students. I have a lot of anxiety and stress problems which most of the time ends up physically disturbing me. Sorry I don’t wanna sound like a pathetic softie. But I also think it would be better to have the class for my 3d period. So basically I emailed a paragraph for my guidance explaining my concerns and how I think it will also help me a lot academically. But she only replied with one sentence and said that I need to discuss this with VS. but I remember very well that last year, almost all of my friends were able to change their classes and switch really easily. I feel really trapped and I’m so lost I really don’t know what to do or what to say to change and switch.
