I think that is FAR too many classes to attempt to take in ONE year, given you have only taken 0NE this year.
What is MORE important than the # of AP Classes you take next year is that your GPA does not go down- not even a little bit. Taking THAT many classes is almost guaranteeing a drop in your grades next year.
So spread them out over the next 2 years- move one of the SP science classes to your senior year.
As skieurope says, there is no extra credit given by admissions offices for students taking more than 6-8 AP classes IN TOTAL.
