I failed my AP exam but got a good grade in the course…how does that work out?
I also took AP Chemistry as a junior and got a 5 on the exam and an 88 in the class.

Sadly, I think the colleges will care more about your grades in the AP classes rather than your scores when it comes to admissions purposes. So your Spanish results will probably look better than your Chemistry results if the colleges you are applying to don’t consider AP scores in the admissions process.
Colleges don’t look at your AP Exam grades when considering you for admission. They are only used once you get accepted, since they will help determine what courses you will be enrolled in.
Each teacher has her/his own method of grading and that determines your grade in the class. That is the grade that is figured into your overall GPA.
Your grade on the test simply determines whether or not you get college credit for the course. Taking the classes provide you with some exposure to college level work and getting a good grade in that always impresses colleges.
AP exams dont really count in admissions, but they do glance at them and real high scores is a plus.
you can cancel it, i presume. but i wouldnt. just keep it, its better.
