From what you are saying it might be best to do both CLEP for classes she wants to just pass over, like basic history that she will do at home but then could earn credit for and take SAT subject tests for those like the sciences since that would be her area of interest. She does plan to eventually take college classes as well in a dual enrollment but the college here will limit both the number of classes and when she can take them based on age. My understanding is that CLEP and SAT subject tests aren't governed by age. The only exception being that you can choose not to submit SAT subject tests taken prior to high school, even with the new policies to fight score choice enacted by some of the elite schools.
My DD has dysgraphia and problems with written expression related to her aspergers. Although, we did ask and her ELA teacher this last year felt she would have no trouble with high school classes. I think it would impact AP tests.
It is pertinent very soon since the recommendation is to take SAT subject exams after you complete the class, not years later and she is homeschooled.
