Is it better to take Multi Variable Calculus in college or AP Stat?
When i am in senior year, Multi Variable Calculus is the highest you can go if you are taking the Calculus Path. Its in a few years, but I want advice which is better, the Multivariable Calculus(After AP Calc BC) or AP Statistics.

It really depends on your future plans in college. If you plan on entering something along the lines of data analysis or finance, I would personally choose AP Stats over MVC. If not, both courses are excellent options to consider and it comes down to a personal decision of what you want to do.
Colleges look for students who participate in the most challenging curriculum offered to them throughout high school, and since both courses are excellent, you have the ability to choose.
That being said, I would like to warn you about AP Calc BC and in some degree MVC, even though you may have received credit for it for Calc BC through the AP exam, it is highly advised you take the class again in college because many concepts may need to be reinforced that were not extensively covered in BC Calculus.
