How Important Are AP Exams to College?

How much do very good colleges, like, say, the lowest Ivy Leagues (Cornell is all I think I could really get into) or Johns Hopkins, care about AP scores? I took the AP Statistics exam today and didn’t find it that easy, although not too hard either. My guess is anywhere from a 2 to a 4, more likely a 3, and hopefully a 4. Last year I took the AP Psychology and AP European history exams and got 4s on both (expected a 1 on euro, so I was happy with that). I plan to study medicine or engineering in college.
