Taking AP Calc AB twice?

My son is in regular calc after a bad year in honor’s precalc (C+). He is finding the class very easy and wanted to take AP BC next year. His teacher thinks that might be a stretch, but the AP AB might be too much like the same class (regular calc) all over again. His teacher is recommending AP Stats as a much more useful class that would make more sense for someone like him who is not intending on a math or engineering major. Any thoughts on this?
