AP Classes…is this correct?

1) Is it okay to take AP U.S. History without taking regular U.S. History? Right now, as a sophomore, I’m taking Honors Global History. I want to take AP U.S. History in my junior year, is it possible? Read this, I got it from my school’s website:

Advanced Placement United States History and Government

This is a one year course open to juniors who have demonstrated excellence in their previous social studies classes. The course provides an in-depth knowledge of U.S. History from colonial times to the present, utilizing college-level readings and essays, as well as the use of primary sources and current scholarship. The course prepares students for the U.S. History A.P. Exam in May. Students who receive a 3 or higher (on a 1-5 scale) may be eligible for college credit. In addition to taking the A.P. Exam, students must also take the U.S. History and Government Regents Exam.

2)If I’ve already taken regular Biology in my freshman year, is it possible for me to take AP Biology in my SENIOR year?

3) Should I take three APs in my junior year? [AP chemistry, calculus BC, and U.S. History] Are they hard? I heard that Calculus is pretty hard.
