Advice on Taking 4 AP classes next year

I am going to be a senior next year, and I will be taking AP English, AP Calculus, AP Biology and AP Physics. I also plan to study AP U.S Gov. by myself. Do you think this is too much.
Thanks for the advice.

I'm taking AP Calculus BC, AP Chemistry, AP Physics C, AP Psychology, and possibly self-studying AP Computer Science A, and I think I will be fine. However, both Biology and English will require a lot of reading, so I'm not sure. One of my friends is taking AP Biology, AP English Literature, AP Physics C, AP Calculus BC, and AP Statistics next year, and she is probably going to do fine (she is also completely insane).

Junior here taking four APs at school and barely starting to self study two. I'll say that it's totally manageable, probably moreso if you actually dedicate yourself because through the year I've gotten incredibly lazy (starting my work at 9pm, turning in assignments late, screwing up my sleep schedule, etc and miraculously still maintaining low-mid A's). The only exam I'm actually worried about right now though is Chem because I've been slacking in that class so bad. :P Next year I've got another full AP schedule and will probably plan more adequately..
