What state do you live in? What is your financial situation for college? Are you planning on studying for and retaking the SAT? Have you taken any SAT IIs? What kind of HS do you attend (public, private, suburban, under served)?

At this point in time, I'd advise not spending the time self-studying for AP Psych. It tends to be regarded as a less rigorous AP and it will not be a factor in college admissions since you don't even take the test until after admissions decisions are made. Your time would be better spent on your grades and on studying for the SAT. If you really want to take Psych, just wait and take it in college.
