Regular high school physics will cover more topics at high school level depth. AP physics 1 will cover half of the topics at somewhat greater depth. If you want to take the SAT subject test in physics, regular high school physics will give you better coverage of its topics.
AP physics 1 (and 2) are not calculus-based, so they will not give useful subject credit for any major that requires calculus based physics (engineering and physical sciences mainly; at some colleges, biology majors also have to take calculus-based physics (sometimes light calculus, though)).
