Computer Concepts and Applications (CIS-107) should be the easiest if you have any computer knowledge.
Take the practice test without studying and see how you score to gauge how difficult the TECEP will be.

From that list, I've only taken CIS-107 as an e-Pack. The other e-Pack I took (Industrial Psychology) included practice quizzes on Moodle. For CIS-107, you're supposed to enroll on a separate learning platform (Cengage MindTap) for the textbook and practice materials. I didn't want to pay the extra $125, so I skipped it. (It's not part of your grade.)
Whichever e-Pack you go with, you only need a 60 on the final/single exam to pass (CR/NC).

I took American Government POS-110, and it wasn't that bad. I didn't bother with their material, and just used CLEP Government flashcards from instantcert and others to study. That got me well within the passing range.

Computer Concepts and Applications (CIS-107) was easy - I passed the TECEP exam with zero studying.

FWIW, the 60% is only for a few TECEPs, some are 70%, so you need to really look into the subject being tested. I would recommend testing an introductory course when you already have 2nd/3rd or even 4th year knowledge of that subject. This is because you're only doing the TECEPs for the RA credits even if it overlaps your ACE/NCCRS ones. In short, I repeat what I mentioned here: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-Tecep-question--40365?pid=366341#pid366341
