Taking CC Classes During Senior Year

hi all,

my main question is: does taking community college classes during my senior year look “bad” in the sense that admissions officers view it as less rigourous than AP’s? at my school, since I’m ahead on credits, I only have to take 4 classes during my senior year if I take courses at my local CC (I would rather do this than take pointless electives).

this is what I plan on taking junior year:

ap english
ap us history
ap bio or regular physics*
spanish 3*
pre-calc
elective

this is what my senior year schedule would be:

ap english
ap government
marketing internship class
elective or another ap?

during my senior year, I might be going to a program to get a trade certificate which will take up a considerable amount of study time

CC classes: stats, macro & micro econ, calculus (my school doesnt offer ap stats or econ)

*I should have taken spanish 3 this year but I can take the equivalent of spanish 3 at my local CC and just continue with that or take ap spanish junior year (leaning towards just taking classes at my local CC)
*since I’m not planning on majoring in STEM, is physics an important class to take?

I’m aware that in comparison to other courseloads on college confidential, mine does not seem very rigorous but I already struggle currently and I didn’t want to stress myself out (I’m also involved in EC’s of course!)

this is a lotttt but I would really appreciate some advice
