Should I give in?

Hey everyone. I was looking for some advice on my current situation...
I'm going to school, full time, 17 credits. I also work the graveyard shift 3:45AM-7:15AM five days a week. I don't have a liscene so I bike six miles to work and back. I'm having trouble with pre-cal, I've deffinately failed my first two tests. I like it, I'm fascinated by it, but it takes me a lot of time and paractice to learn the material. At first I was just going to quit my job and see if I could scrape money together for rent and food somehow. But now I'm considering withdrawing from pre-cal instead and keeping the job which =party funds. So should I: A) Tough it out, find discipline in myself, work the job study every second, don't back down! B)Quit the job maybe lifeguard a little and do some business to cover money, and stick with all my classes. Spend more time on mycology. C)Quit pre-cal and keep the job.
It's real hard for me to give in like this. I have this internal drive that says, you can do it! But it just isn't logical. I want to break logical rules. It's a frustrating situation.
Anyone been in a similar situation or have any useful advice for me? I appreciate guys!

Your already that far in, I don't think you should quit. Could you find a job with more flexible shifts or borrow some money from family members?

you can stay fulltime and drop one class. Go ahead and drop it.

Do what is best for your future, do what feels right. Getting somewhere in life takes lots of sacrifice.. I hate giving up my free time to advance myself to go work for somebody else. And sometimes I wish I would go back to making it on my own.. because I can do it, It's just a little easier to fade away into ruin when you have no structure... Stay strong, go for the money, and try to have fun doing it

Just do it... Stop everything you are doing that wastes time and evergy. This is something I have a very hard time doing myself.\Good luck bro, let us know what you decide in a few weeks

dont quit school. taking fewer classes is fine but dont drop all of them. if need be ask for less days at work, or shorter hours.

I opt for A. You've come this far already and by sticking it you'll get a full taste of what is expected of you next time you take the class--then, you'll be able to use it to your advantage.
