For me, it did work. Both of the economics CLEPs (for instance) were no longer being evaluated for grades when I enrolled, but I had taken it the previous year when it was still being evaluated, so I got the grade for it.
Oh, one other interesting thing to note--and then I'm done: It definitely DOES matter when you get the credits. (I forgot to mention this before...) After you have already received your bachelor's degree, any further undergraduate credits are considered graduate credit (at least for law school purposes) and are thus not factored into your GPA. They're reported and you are *required* to send your transcripts, but it won't improve (or hurt) your GPA.
I'm an engineer. Go figure.
