Everyone is 100% different. Joel you're an anomaly - very few people have the test taking skills / intelligence to pull off your sort of pace.
I work 10-12 hours a day and have three kids. I take two "traditional" classes online every semester, and at least one CLEP / DSST exam a month. For me this IS my maximum.
For anyone new reading this - they key is simple - make progress ... the pace is not important. If your situation is such that you need a month to prepare for an exam - well that's still a 36 credit hour / year pace!
Best,
Matt
