EXPLANATION

"Dropping out of" means to leave something, like school or a program, before finishing it. It's when you decide to stop participating in something that you were once a part of. For example, if a student decides to quit school before graduating, they drop out. People might drop out of activities or jobs too if they decide they don't want to continue. It's usually a choice someone makes when they feel like they don't want to or can't continue with whatever they were doing. So, "drop out of" means leaving something unfinished.
