TurboTax won't let me pick my education credit

American Opportunity Credit will only deduct up to $2,500 but the Tuition Deduction Credit will deduct $4,000 and I cannot choose it manually but it does show me the credits and money I qualified to deduct for each one. It choose for me the American Opportunity credit but I tried manually choosing and it wont let me. Can someone help me please?!

 

It stresses me out knowing I would be robbed out of an extra $1,500 of possible deduction because TurboTax decided so. I have a good understand of how it works and why it does certain decisions but this is my 6th year using it and decided to purchase the CD option at Costco and it is not flexible with manually choosing different options.
