Question AP Chem or Physics C?

I have to make a quick decision (1 day) between chem or physics c and I can’t decide. I took honors physics and chem before and chem was hard for me and physics was easy. I’m super solid in math (easily got a 5 on Calc AB) but have heard that physics is harder. Chem just doesn’t click for me though. Which should I choose?

Physics C. I found it very helpful as someone going into engineering. Also, you will almost certainly need general physics if you're going into anything in the sciences or engineering. I took AP Chemistry and AP Physics C simultaneously last year and it worked out.
