If you do well in an AP class (B or A), but you get a one or two on the AP exam will colleges hold that exam score against you?

The exam score will not be held against you unless you are applying to very selective schools - you just won’t receive college credit for the class. I don’t think colleges will know your AP exam score unless you send it to them!

In allowing college credits, I believe colleges generally accept scores of 3 or higher. Very selective colleges generally accepts only scores of 4 or 5.
