To both of you I say take the AP Stat.
For the student who is done with Calc - it would be better if the HS offered another level of math (my daughter’s school offers Multivariable Calc) but since they don’t, taking AP Stat would be the most rigorous course work available. My daughter was in a similar situation and she is taking both AP Stat and Multi this year as a senior. She loves the Stat class.
For the student only in Pre-calc - taking AP stat is better than no math, and stat is very unlike other math classes and is useful in many non-stem professions. (also - it may satisfy the math requirement for your college if you get the ap credits - as an english major you may be happy to not have to take math in college!)
