Difference between science and social studies credits?

I am concerned about the unequal distribution of my high school credits between each of the five academic disciplines (English, foreign language, mathematics, science, and social studies). I know that universities like dedication and specialization in something that makes you unique, but they also of course want well-rounded students. From those of you who have experience in these things, how would an admissions board see my credentials?

English (4 credits) - Pre-AP English I, Pre-AP English II, AP Language, AP Literature

Foreign Language (9) - Spanish I, Spanish II, Spanish III, Spanish IV, AP Spanish Language, AP Spanish Literature, Latin I, Latin II, AP French Language

Mathematics (6) - Algebra I Honors, Geometry Honors, Algebra II Honors, Precalculus, AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC

Science (5) - Biology Honors, Chemistry Honors, AP Chemistry, AP Biology, AP Physics C Mechanics

Social Studies (3.5) - World History Honors, AP US History, AP US Government, AP Macroeconomics

I mean, my schedule checks all the boxes as far as required fields and all, but I feel that my social studies credits are so lackluster compared to everything else. How much does that matter? Thank you so much!
