Ideas is correct. Start at the official source. I took the official source and converted it into Wikipedia links that cover the exam quite well. If you find a broken link, feel free to update the list.

Hi all

I am preparing for the exam and wanted to know how deep should I dive into knowing anatomy and physiology part of exam (digestion, immune system, circulatory, respiratory etc). Could someone give me pointers or suggest sources I should look at for this portion

Thanks!

Have you purchased an Official Study Guide? It gives you a practice test for each CLEP. The practice test in it should give you a rough idea of how thorough the questions will be on the real test. The paid forums are a good resource as well.
