Not a problem. This year a kid who took AP stats instead of MV got into 2 of H/Y/P/S/M. But he also had huge STEM EC accomplishments.
If your accomplishments are so strong, then it does not matter. But for most students, it is going to be an issue at T20.

Be prepared for this going into it; students need to make the class their top academic focus & study well. On the bright side it will make their college professors seem easy.
Plenty of kids got As and Bs.
