Question

I'm in a high school that offers the I.B. program which provides more job opportunities, increased chance of university acceptance, etc. It's been two years of the preview (grade 9 & 10 which are just a bit more difficult than the regular curriculum) and overall I'm getting average grades (70% to 80%) except in one class. In my country, students must learn the country's second language and I am struggling so much and the teacher is terribly strict, assigns a crazy amount of work, and is basically rude with the excuse of preparing her students for higher education when other teachers nicer while doing so. I picked my courses already so I can't change courses or drop out of the program or else I'll get the unwanted courses. I plan on completing this school year but should I drop out of this program for the next? I'm suffering so much from this second language course that I'm becoming sleep deprived, have bad self esteem issues, and I'm constantly stressed out and cannot understand what's happening in class. I understand the benefits of the program with increasing my chances of getting well paid jobs in the future but I'm just so overwhelmed by this 1 stupid class. Should I stay?
