Should I take 5 AP's instead of 6 AP's Senior Year?

[skieurope]

My counselor said she’d mark my schedule as “most rigorous” if I take AP Statistics.

Now my dilemma is only having 3 years of science in high school instead of 4. However, I’d now have 5 math courses instead of 4.

I go back to my earlier advice of getting your parents involved and speaking to the Director of Guidance. I fail to see how the GC’s recommendation can be taking seriously by colleges.

"Dear College:

I rated @theringofinfinite 's schedule as “most rigorous” because I felt that it was more important that he have 6 AP’s than following your college’s recommended HS preparation.

Sincerely,
The GC"
