I signed up for test #2, CLEP English comp. I managed a 65 on my REA practice test with no studying vs. 46 for the Math general CLEP so it's next on the list.
Aside from writing practice timed essays, working the practice tests, doing post mortems on the results, and reading the Elements of Style does anyone have any other study suggestions. Thanks again in advance!

Yes! Doing the InstantCert Flash Cards! If you review them thoroughly, you'll be fine on the real deal.

Took this one first and passed with a 57. Not a good score, but I passed! It might have had something due to the fact that I thought for a month I was taking Freshman Composition. Whoops! But everything you listed should be enough to pass it!

And then there's political correctness. I think that's what got me on the essay part. The other part is easy if you like grammar, however.
