Is 6 college classes a terrible idea?

I know some kids who have skipped Calc and took AP Stat instead who are interested in government/social studies and still got into great colleges. As long as you have taken precalc I think you’ll be fine, since you don’t intent to major in stem.

Look into the colleges that your are interested in. Some colleges don’t require calc as a general requirement and if your major is a social studies topic, you won’t need to take it at all (unless you major in economics where some colleges require calc)

Defintely drop at least one of the dual enrollment classes. Your schedule is rigorous enough and it won’t benefit your college admission chances much to take dual enrollment. Doing some related employment/internship/extracurricular might be more beneficial as you could potentialy write an essay about the experience.
