The subject matter is ok by itself, I just find myself unable (or maybe unwilling) to become engaged in the material. I've been feeling pretty detached from school for the last two semesters.
I should've taken a 3rd history course, but I assumed I would be able to tolerate the class/teacher. I should have known better. The prof. also doesn't give out her lecture notes, unfortunately.
I hate lecturers who don't give out their notes! I'd do something else if you're going to struggle to engage in the material and all you get is what she gives you to work from. Maybe a similar topic taught by a different lecturer.

I put off a chemistry course in my last year of high school and ended up stretch year 12 over 2 years (Australian system) because my first chemistry teacher was an Ahole. It worked out well for me because when I learnt from a rational human being I suddenly got better grades . It worked for me in other ways too though because I was able to study part time, work and save up money for uni.

I guess being in third year you might want to consider what the extra time studying to finish off means for you. Advantage - perhaps to gain part time experience in a related field to add to your resume - or disadvantage - cost of the extra subject and taking longer to graduate?
