There are three obvious options that don't raise any ethical issues:
1. Pay for an InstantCert subscription and use the biology flashcards.
2. Pay for the Peterson's CLEP biology practice tests: Peterson's Practice Tests for the CLEP Biology -- Peterson's Test Prep Center
3. Go ahead and take the actual CLEP test. If you don't pass, you can take it again in six months.

Peterson's practice exams are very difficult for this CLEP, but worth reading/working through. If you are not in the military, check to see if your local library and any large affiliated libraries in nearby big cities offer it online through the "Testing and Education Resource Center".

I recommend buying REA books without the CDs. Typically the CD contains one less practice test than the number of tests printed in the book. In other words, even if you use the CD to take practice tests, you'll still have to use the book to take the final practice test. I find that reviewing the rationales for the answers printed in the book as far more efficient than reviewing the results of the test from the CD. The CD is for Windows only. It won't work on a Mac or Linux machine.
Amazon.com: CLEP Official Study Guide 2012 (9780874479768): The College Board: Books is a great source for accurate practice tests.

Try your local library system or CC for access to the "Gale testing and educational resource center) TERC. If your system sybscribes to that they usually have a link to free practice exams. One might find success with google and the info above.

The REA books with the CD do have all three exams; only the CD has only two of the three loaded. I would just take the third exam on paper. I actually enjoyed the computerized exams. YMMV.
You can also use Flash cards, vocabulary memorization, and study games | Quizlet and search biology. You can alter the settings so the flashcards become quizzes. Choose a set of cards, click the study box, you will see on the right choices for settings M/C, T/F, matching, etc...

Go to your local library and get a copy of the CLEP Official Guide. It also has a free practice exam. Don't make the mistake of taking the same exam more than once, or it's not a reliable measure of your readiness. Just take the 3 REA practice and the official guide practice. Beyond that, for $20 you can take 3 of the Peterson's which are very good.
On a side note, after your test, would you like to sell your REA Bio book? That's the exact one I'm looking for.
