Not to beat a dead horse, but my personal philosophy has been I'm only concerned with the letter grade. If it's pass/fail, then I wasn't sweating what I get, as long as I pass. My personal goal for preparing is knowing I'm getting the minimum score required for an A on whatever practice tests I'm using, which has resulted in getting an A on all of mine (conventional wisdom being the good practice tests are usually harder than the actuals).
While I think it's possible some grad school review person might look at the actual score of a pass/fail, my guess is that such a person is going to be even more dismissive of the fact that it's a CLEP and not an actual class. Many schools are very snobby about testing out - many colleges (for their programs) only allow up to 30 (or fewer) CLEP or Dantes semester hours.
I wouldn't sweat the scores unless they confer a grade (only 7 of the CLEPs, but all of the Dantes).
