Congrats on your first pass!
As for HG&D, I don't want to say one week is enough. It could be for some people, but not for others. If you know all the stuff in the IC flashcards, and look up everything recommended in the exam feedback, that will probably be enough. Have you purchased the Collegeboard's book yet? That book is a pretty good indicator of one's readiness. If you can learn all that in one week's time, well that just depends on how much free study time you have in a week and how fast you learn. But it is certainly possible.
You will be helped on that one if you are a parent. I never had to take Human Growth and Development, because it would duplicate credits I already had, but I passed the practice exam by a wide margin because I read tons of pregnancy and child development books while I was pregnant. So your level of prior knowledge could be a big factor. Study hard, and don't take any exam for granted. Once you get through a few of these, it gets easier to gauge when and whether or not you are ready.

You never forget your first !!!! Congrats. As for the HG&D....I took a good three weeks of studying for it but it was my first and also I figured it was the foundation for all the other Psych exams I would be taking in the next few weeks. Now that I am taking Ed Psych very soon and a few TECEP's, I am very glad that I know all the foundation info about the stages etc because they keep coming up. There are some excellent posts about the HGD exam on the Specific Exam forum...you really need to understand the stages and how they relate to Billy not crying when you buy him candy, etc. I have a good self made study guide that I can send you via email. PM me with your email address and I will shoot it off to you.

Mark,
If you passed the Management CLEP, consider taking Principles of Supervision DSST which overlaps alot with the Mngmnt CLEP. Unless you don't need it.

Congrats on your pass someone suggested that and I checked with my school but it wouldn't apply to my degree. Thanks anyway.
