Can AP exam scores make up for slightly subpar grades?

<p>So, I just got my final report card, and my final average (numerical) in AP Calculus was an 89.40. Obviously, this was rounded to an 89. Now, I am not so grade-stressed that I'm freaking out about grades to such an extent, but would my 5 on the exam make the grade look a little better? The class is really tough and the teacher prides herself on very few students getting As (four or fewer in a class of 20).</p>
