Passing CLEP Exam scores will give you a boost in the admissions process. However, it would look better to score 4-5s on AP exams if your school offers them. CLEP Exams are designed for students who did not have the opportunity to take APs, but want to earn college credit to reduce the cost of college. Hope this helps!
