My motto:

All CLEPs are easy with adequate preparation. hilarious

Sociology and Principles of Management aren't too hard. Just be sure you spend adequate prep time. I'm guessing (perhaps wrongly) that you didn't spend more than a couple hours prepping for Marketing?

I'd say A&I Lit would be the easiest one, followed by Intro to Sociology

Not to be a smartass, but Marketing ties with Sociology as the easiest. Try studying next time.
I have 18 traditional credits and 51 exam credits. I've passed Introductory Sociology 76, Introductory Psychology 68, A&I Literature 66, Principles of Marketing 76, Introductory Business Law 71, Social Sciences & History 67, DSST Drug & Alcohol Abuse 450, Biology 69, Principles of Management 70, Natural Sciences 64, Intro to Business DSST 70, Principles of Macroeconomics 67, Principles of Microeconomics 58.

I reread my response and it is a tad harsh. Unless the OP corrects me I can't believe he studied at all for Marketing. In the specific exam feedback section everyone that goes over the flashcards seems to be passing it.

Now, a quick look at the "practice test raw score conversion table" in one of my study guides shows a scaled score of 38 corresponds with a raw score of 28. That's 8 more correct answers than he'd get with random chance. It demonstrates zero to very little preparation.

How did I prepare? I'm embarrassed to say that I barely did. I read the REA guide for around 5-6 hours the night before the exam. I never even took a practice test or looked at the flashcards.

Cheers! Ronny
