I suspect it won’t make much of a difference - Bio has one of the lower 4/5 score percentages and APs have little weight in admissions decisions anyway.
MIT as your example - they don’t even mention AP on their standardized testing page or their admissions statistics page. If they suggest sending all standardized test scores, which I can’t find, I suspect they are referring to all SAT and ACT test dates.
(Side note - do you have an additional unmentioned AP score? The six 5s plus a 3 and a 4 in your initial post wouldn’t meet the “4 or higher on eight or more of these exams.” criteria. Not that the specific title will mean much, if anything, on an application.)
Yes, I also have a 4 in Computer Science Principles, but I’m not too concerned about that one since it’s not related to my major and we didn’t even have an AP exam this year to calculate towards our score.
