Should I drop AP Spanish?

Senior currently taking 6 AP classes (Lit, chemistry, calculus BC, stats, physics II, Spanish). I will be applying to top schools including the ivy league. I have completed up to Spanish V, but am not enjoying AP Spanish. If I drop the class I would be able to take an advanced robotics course which is pertinent to my potential major (some form of engineering or computer science). Would 5 AP classes be a sufficient senior course load? Would not taking 4 years of Spanish significantly lower my chances of getting into prestigious schools? Should I just tough it out and take the class? My time is always taken up by sports and preparing for applications and this class certainly takes up a lot of time too. Would it be worth it in the end to potentially score a 5, even though I’m not necessarily that confident in my Spanish abilities?
