i would say that it depends entirely on your daughter and how hard she wants to work her senior year, especially second semester. As a HS senior taking 5 APs ( and initially planning on self-studying for an additional AP) I would say that first semester the seemingly endless hours of hw and studying seem worth it in the face of college applications and the like, but let me tell you, after I got into college and with graduation right around the corner, I am finding it hardere and harder to perserver through those hours of hw and studying. And soon, I will have to start studing more intensely than ever for my 5 AP exams, even though I found out that that college that I am going to doesn’t even take any AP credits into account unless it’s AP gov’t, which I not even taking. '

The moral of the story here is to seriously take into account how much your child is willing to put into her AP classes, come second semster senior year.
