Hey guys!

I tried searching the AMCAS website, SDN threads, and Google and I couldn't find an answer, so I hope someone here knows! I'm wanting to take CLEP and DANTES/DSST exams to test out of some non-prerequisite courses, but I don't want to risk hurting my application if I fail. So what happens if I fail? Does AMCAS still require the fail to be recorded, or will no one ever know if I fail? Also, does AMCAS require the CLEP transcript to be submitted? I guess what I'm asking is will it hurt me in the long run if I fail a CLEP/DSST?

Thanks for all of your help!
