You don’t have to submit it but if you just mass report there is almost no impact it’s compared to a 1500 SAT v 1490 SAT.

Ap exams are used for college credit not really admissions the classes count for rigor not the exams.

Hope this helps!

If you submit your AP Exam scores to colleges, then they will factor into admissions decisions. Colleges want to see that you have challenged yourself, and taking an AP class shows drive, motivation, and passion. You can submit all of the scores you are proud of, and just not report the others. I would say that the grade in the AP classes are more important.
