Calculus in College or in Highschool?

In my freshman year, I was a bit behind (atleast for more prestigious colleges & my major) in math classes, taking algebra 1 for my freshman year. Thankfully, I was given the opportunity to take Honors Algebra 2 and Honors Geometry at the same time in my current year as a sophmore, and my Algebra 2 teacher has just cleared me to skip precalc next year and go straight into Calc AB (our school is very strict and thats as far as you can skip). However, she came to me a day later and told me that the administrators for this year switched up and its very possible that I'll have to take precalc for the entire year.

I signed up for dual enrollment to get 2 years of credit for foreign language, and when taking the ACCUPLACER to serve as my placement test, I was only 7 points off from being able to do Calc 1 as one of my classes. However, I can still take precalc in my first semester of junior year and then Calc 1 in my second semester of junior year. Obviously if I'm not allowed to do AP Calc AB then I'll just do this, but my 2 main questions are this:

1. Which is the better option? Precalc for 1 semester then calc or just AP calc ab for all of junior year

2. Would colleges care that was only for one semester? While it is a college class and oen semester accounts for one year of highschool, I'm still curious.

Help would be appreciated, thanks!
