I'm a Canadian so a lot of the statutory and constitutional law they refer to on CLEP's Business Law and DSST's Business Law II exams was foreign to me, but I was still able to pass both exams based on knowing enough about the English common law.
If you want to know about the common law, buy or borrow the "Sum & Substance" audio lecture series on CD for torts, contracts, and crimes. A lot of the exam is based on practical examples, and the CDs can help you a lot in analyzing those examples. These CDs are a favourite of first-year law students in the USA and other common law countries.
Learn the definitions of the many different Latin legal terms like stare decisis, certiorari, caveat emptor, mandamus, habeas corpus, etc.
Know a bit about the Constitution and amendments to it.
Study some of the rules about transactions under the Uniform Commercial Code and the different kinds of bankruptcy.
That's about it if you want to pass. If you learn all of these things and also study negotiable instruments and real property, you should also be able to pass the DSST Business Law II exam.
