Dropping an AP class after a semester?

<p>I really want to drop APUSH because it's seriously taking up so much time and I don't think I can devote my time to it anymore. I'm taking AP Biology and AP Lang/Comp with it, so I would like to drop down to regular US history. My counselor told me it's a very bad idea and that colleges will hate to see this on the transcript: showing that I'm a quitter. Is this true? APUSH has been hurting the grades in my other classes and I've been sleeping so late these days. I don't know if I can handle this the second semester. I got a C+ this semester because I totally failed the final and my grade dropped down from an 80%. Is it really a bad idea to drop APUSH 2nd semester?</p>

<p>No, I would drop it if it is hurting you that much.</p>
