If anything > 50 will do, then a few days of study should do. If you're looking for > 66, then it will depend on how well you cram. My recommendations are as follows:
1. Study the Schaum's Spanish Outline
2. Goto the grammar links found @ Free Spanish Lessons and Spanish Language Courses and practice.
3. Take the 2nd Peterson's exam (take shorthand notes during the audio.)
4. Review your exam 1 & 2 trouble areas.
5. Repeat 1 & 2 above.
6. Take the 3rd Peterson's exam (take shorthand notes during the audio.)
7. Review any exam 3 trouble areas.
8. Repeat 1 & 2 above.
9. Go take the CLEP (take shorthand notes during the audio.)
10. Please let me know how steps 1 - 9 worked out.
Best of Luck,

I took a language (French) CLEP without the benefit of being able to take Peterson's practice tests beforehand (not available) and used library materials to do what this IC'er did - basically studied regular verbs, some irregular verbs, grammar highlights, and borrowed Pimsleur Language CDs to get in the groove for the audio part. There are a lot of Spanish language resources at all the larger libraries and these days with a library card you can often get access to the language CDs online - you don't have to even set foot in the library!
