Environmental Science?

Currently, I’m working on next year’s schedule (I’ll be a senior), and I’ve come across a bit of a scheduling dilemma. I am planning to major in computer science.

I have seven periods in my school day.

Here are the classes I MUST take(school forces me into them):
-AP English Lit
-AP Economics
-AP Calculus BC

Here are my “optional” classes(although most of these I pretty much have to take for college):
-AP Physics C(2 periods)
-Advanced Topics in Computer Science(class progression goes AP Comp Sci(soph. year), Data Struc.(junior), adv. topics(senior))

And here’s my problem.

I want to take AP Environmental Science, but given my current schedule and major it will definitely look like a “filler” or “blow off” class to colleges. This isn’t the reason I wan’t to take it; I genuinely would like to learn about the environment.

However, I do have these alternatives(which I’m not really as interested in, but still would be fine taking)
AP Gov(both of them; hmm)
AP Euro(eh)
AP Art History(ew)

Or, I could just take another elective. What would you suggest?

P.S. Don’t tell me to take a foreign language; I have that set up outside of school.

Thanks in advance!
