I'd recommend high school students take AP courses if they can, since they're more respected/transferrable. Then they have CLEPs as a backup option if they fail the corresponding AP class.

Not everyone has access to AP exams (or courses). Plus, AP courses normally take a full year, and are a TON of work. If the college you plan on attending takes CLEP's, there's no reason not to do this.
