If you plan on going for graduate schools to get your Masters/PhD and one of their core requirements is Calculus I, II, etc, or maybe some Biology or Physics that you placed out of with AP, they're not going to look well on that.If it's something you're studying after a bachelor's, then it's typically something that you'll have taken more advanced courses than the AP versions for. ie, if it's something that needs calc, you'll have taken calc III and IV. If it needs bio, you'll have taken more than just bio 101. The AP courses will just let you get to the more advanced courses faster.
Graduate schools want you in a college classroom for core requirements (typically BCPM for practical degree programs) and getting exceptions for two prelim. math classes, or Biology, or whatever it is since you took AP isn't looked well upon.
