i would be very cautious on doing that as you have an approved i-140 already which signifies your immigrant intent. Can be done but too risky.

Well I am an F1 too so I would be cautious as F1 visa has no immigrant intent or “dual intent”. When you filed your i-140 and was approved you have signified your immigrant intent which is in contrast to your student visa. As I have said its your decision but the risk are too high and I guess you researched already that even though you have a student visa CBP still has the last say if you can enter or not.

Don’t try your luck, the odds are against you at this time. simply wait until you can get AP. Alternatively you can transfer your case to NVC and process from your home country when you get home. meaning you can’t come back in until you receive your immigrant visa stamp

I’d recommend you talking to an attorney

If you’re using the travel permit from your sponsor case, you can’t use your student visa to come back here. You will show your travel permit to come back and you need to proof why you need to come back to USA

if you are holding f1 visa or AP, you can travel and reentry

It would be better if you waited until you got your AP

once you get approved for parole you can travel. don't be scared you're good. or you need it's approved documents
