If your exam voucher is valid for 6 months or so, she can study for anything. My advice is to bump it up alongside something you're going to use for curriculum this year. Here are a few of my recommendations, but your daughter's strengths and weaknesses obviously are the most important thing. Also, SOME (not all) DSST exams have practice tests, I would choose one that does. For future tests, it may be unnecessary, but overpreparing for the first one isn't a bad plan.
These 4 have practice tests at the DSST site and are better choices (in my opinion) than the others on the exam list that can be "adult" in nature or are considerably more advanced than she probably is:
Personal Finance, 3 credits
(many homeschool families use Dave Ramsey's course as a foundation for this one)
Introduction to World Religions, 3 credits
(if your family is Christian, I suggest Cheri Frame's Credits Before College course - it's for homeschoolers and lines up exactly for this exam)
Math for Liberal Arts, 3 credits
(if she's already finished pre-algebra, this might be doable- better after Algebra 1)
Environmental Science, 3 credits
(ditto World Religions- it's #2 of her 3 courses written for Christian homeschoolers and lines up with this exam)
