It sounds like you’re at a pivotal point in deciding which math class to take! Since you’re pursuing a career in political science and law, it’s important to consider how much math you’ll actually need in your future studies.

If you feel that a CCP class might be too rigorous, especially if you’re already feeling burnt out on math, sticking with pre-calc could be the wiser choice.
Ultimately, it’s about balancing your interests and future goals with your current workload and stress levels. It might also be worth talking to your school counselor or math teacher for more personalized advice based on your strengths and plans. Good luck with your decision!
