calc senior year- yes or no??

i am not a math whiz. my school requires every student to take a math class all four years, no matter what level they're at. i took quantitative reasoning 2 as a freshman, honors precalculus as a sophomore, and this year i'm taking computer science (which counts as a math course!). i have the option to take AP comp sci next year, but would it be better to take calculus? i know colleges look for it, but i want to do things i'm good at. i'm currently sitting at a cool 100% in comp sci right now, so i'm really leaning towards doing AP. also, taking a whole year between precalc and calc probably isn't a good idea. still, i want more opinions :)

Yeah @piyapatel_ is right. You’ll have to take it either way ya look at it. If comp sci is a total breeze for you, in your shoes I’d take both and just head to a tutor whenever I can. I wish you the best :)
