Is 6 college classes a terrible idea?

I would skip the AP Stats and/or deemphasize the stats, and take an AP Calc instead. Econ intent-majors will look a lot better with AP Calc on their resume. AP Stats is not particularly needed since most good Econ programs would require calculus-based Stats, which AP Stats isn’t.

If you took 3.5 AP classes, that’s a average load for a smart student. APs for Bio, Govt, Calc AB (or even BC) and Lit is fairly difficult but manageable.
