Hi Bella,
If grad school is in your future, I would strongly recommend you choose DANTES over CLEPs wherever possible. This will create an adequate GPA record for your graduate admissions board to evaluate.
Most schools that want a GPA don't mind if you have pass/fails on your transcript, but will more than likely want to see at least 30 - 60 graded credits on which to evaluate your performance. Some stipulate that you have a certain GPA based on your undergraduate major, or based on the last 30 credits you earned etc.
Thus, it is essential that you research your grad admissions guidelines as early as possible into your undergraduate work so that you don't get blind-sided once you apply for your masters.
Hope that helps,
