AP Stat and Precalc/Calc

Would it be a mistake to take AP Stat and Honors Precalculus at the same time? I’ve heard that some skills you learn in Calc AB/BC help you in AP Statistics. Is this true? Would Calc AB/BC be easier if I did AP Statistics first? Thanks in advance for your help.

AP Stats isn’t so difficult, so plenty of students take it along with PreCalc or AP Calc. They’re not too related though, so I wouldn’t say that AP Calc is any easier having taken AP Stats.
