It will basically be all or none at the time of each backup. It will either backup everything, or it will refuse to backup and tell you there is an issue. You can compare how much data are on your iPad and then how big your backups are, but that would only be a rough idea. You can log into iCloud.com and try to view various files using the apps there but it would be a lot faster to simply run a backup and then you'd know everything was backed up.
