InstantCert and the REA book are pretty good for this exam. But you'd do well to at least skim a
textbook.
If you pass the sample test on the
CLEP Official Study Guide, you will probably pass the exam. The REA sample tests are good, but they tend to ask different
types of questions.

For the biology test, I used IC as well as REA, and Pass your Class. Additionally I used DVD's from netflix which I found quite helpful.
Good luck to you.
I see you passed American Gov. How did you find that test? I'm scheduled to take it next week.

As for American Government:
That was one of my harder tests. I probably would have had a better score if I had been solid on the major court-cases. Make sure you know them! For example: Baker v. Carr, Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, etc.
I didn't use REA or IC, so I'm not sure how helpful they'll be on this
particular test, but in general they're pretty useful.
