For my senior year schedule, I’m debating on what math class to take. I’m likely going to balance a pretty heavy course load that includes AP Language, AP Biology, AP World History, and some other unknown classes. I recently took Probability & Statistics last semester and got an A but the teacher made the subject easy to understand. Things to consider- I’m not a fan of math and I haven’t done particularly well in past math classes, I’m likely going to double up on either the AP English courses or AP science courses, and I’m planning on double majoring in Business and Healthcare Administration (or just Healthcare Administration).
Business majors commonly need calculus, particularly at more selective colleges that students taking lots of AP courses aspire to. So it is best to take precalculus in high school to avoid needing to take it as a remedial course in college. Business majors commonly need statistics as well, but some colleges require statistics with calculus.

If you want to be a business major, you need precalculus. No going around it.
However you should drop AP Bio, which you don’t need and is one of the most time intensive AP’s.
