Many colleges have told us admissions doesn't care about the AP exam scores. They look at class taken and grade in class. Which sucks when getting 5s on the test is what your kid is good at and they don't look at the scores until you are admitted to determine credit. But I guess if you list one of the AP honors like AP scholar with distinction on your application or AP state scholar they would know you did well on the exams.
(This question came up from parents asking because of AP exam scores senior year come out in July and don't impact admission and the admission officers reply...we don't care in admissions about the exam scores anyway...we want the class and grade in class.). But if kid goes to additional hard class at school or local university dual enrolled then the next class shows up on transcript.
