Yes, it all hinges on what OP wants to do next (and how sure s/he is of it).
Math Studies is enough if OP only intends to take one general education in math/quantitative skills (those only require algebra and some geometry) and is not detrimental for Statistics. However it’s not sufficient for any degree that requires precalculus or calculus.
If OP does the full IB diploma, Math studies won’t matter as long as the three HL’s are 5+ and coherent with his/her college plans.
If OP is NOT doing the full IB diploma and just cherry picking classes, then Precalc is better (unless OP is reasonably sure s/he would get a C or less in Precalcand thus doesn’t belong there.)
