Importance of rigorous academic classes?

I think that taking the AP US history might be a little too much. I mean, I know that I could handle it, but it might mean sacrificing some valuable time that could be spent otherwise. Also, the American Studies class sounds more fun and useful for a musical theatre major. And to tell you truth, I think that the American Studies is weighted the same as the AP US History is. So as I see it now, the only benefit of taking the AP class would be to have another class with AP in front of it on my transcripts. And as for the duel credits, I guess I’ll have to look into how they affect scholoships and other stuff like that. But if worse comes to worse, then I just wouldn’t apply the credits to my college. Thanks for all of your input.
