Welcome to the forum!
I thought this article about DSST and CLEP scoring, which was originally posted by gofastinc, was very interesting.

DSST is saying that the new refreshed exams are being scored similarly to CLEP, and the old non-refreshed exams are not. Instead of comparing test-takers to each other to determine the passing score (old non-refreshed DSST exams), they are both (new DSST and CLEP) setting a certain number/percentage of questions correct as the passing score.
I also thought this was good to have for reference:
