Like Irish John and clep3705 stated, you can do it in either order.
What I'd recommend depends on how motivated you are.
High Motivation: I'd study first and when your ready schedule the test.
Lower Motivation: Scheduling the test may be plausible if you work better with deadlines.
Like clep3705 said, the testing center you plan on going to may have limited testing (it takes 3-4 weeks for me to get into mine).
Lastly, there's a 6 month retest period for CLEPs. Don't feel bad if you have to reschedule it if you don't feel ready. When your practice test scores start hitting above the 60% mark, you should be ready.
Regardless of which order you choose, when you go in to take the test, go in with confidence.
Best of luck to you!
