Taking three classes this quarter

Hello, I’m a freshman and I’m considering to transfer. I am currently attending school with a quarter system. My school is regarded prestigious but I don’t think I am happy here. I am Seriously considering transferring to other school with a similar rigor. Because of this, I am hesitant dropping one of my 4 classes this quarter and taking three courses. Two of them are considered high level/honour courses. I am dropping one because this first quarter as a freshman has been overwhelming for me and I am trying to get bettergrades for remaining three rather than do bad/mediocre on all four. Will my decision to drop a class this fall quarter affect my chances to be accepted to other schools as a transfer?
