Dropping class red flag?

<p>I am currently about to get destroyed in my AP computer science class. I had high grades over the past 3 quarters 97+ but this last quarter is going to be bad. I've already over committed so I don't have enough time to study. I'm afraid that if I drop the class it'll show up as a red flag on admissions to the very top schools. What do you guys think?</p>

<p>If they see that I dropped a class with high grades what will they think? Is it a bad idea?</p>
