Looking at Barnard requirements for psyc major… Stats is required and " two courses in a science, both semesters accompanied by a 3-hour laboratory section (astronomy, biology, chemistry, environmental science, geology, or physics). A student may use AP credit towards the outside science requirement if the corresponding department (i.e. biology) and the College accept it as fulfilling the college science requirement."

Which means you can choose physics, but also not choose it and take it from the other sciences. As well as this: “one course from the cognate disciplines (anthropology, computer science, economics, linguistics, philosophy, or sociology”

So look at the requirements at the colleges you are thinking about. Physics may not be required, but another science is… It is possible that taking AP Stats and AP Psych, at your school and comp sci are reasonable choices, but again, the best expert is the admissions office at the school (s)of your choice. Better to know now, than to regret a choice of classes later.
