I had this same exact problem, but I stuck with the class for the entire year. My parents actually forced me into the class, but they were okay with letting me drop it after I got a C for the semester. I just figured that if I had stayed in it for a semester, then I should probably just finish off the other semester as well since I already came this far. One thing that was different in my case though is that I took it as a junior and I’m not going into a field related to Physics. Also, for senior year, I took AP Bio, and I had an A- for first quarter, so I significantly improved my grade, so it made it look like I worked harder…Sorry I was rambling. Anyway, I would say wait two more weeks, and kind of go over pros and cons. Even if you took the AP test, the score wouldn’t come until after you graduated. Also, I have heard many people say that it is much better to stick with a normal course and get an A or B rather than pushing yourself in an AP class and getting a C or D. AP classes will look good if you have an A or B. It’s all up to you in the end.
