I also am still waiting on my only two DSST tests to arrive at my testing center. I think I could do all four next week, two CLEPS on one day and the two DSST on another.
I just don't feel ready for an August 1st date. I have felt like I was on such a roll, and this feels like a failure in someways,  but I think I need to reframe it as a wise decision until I get back on track mentally and physically.
I am lucky in that I test at a small college, and they are open to rescheduling.
What do you think? 
Good to be back, and hooray for all the hard work I've been reading about!

It isn't a failure in ANY way CT. It is WISDOM.
Why take an exam that you don't feel adequately prepared for? In the overall scheme of things, postponing an exam for a while is no big deal. I've done it several times.
You know when you are ready, and when you are not. If you don't feel ready, go ahead and postpone until you do!
Don't forget, we go at an extremely accelerated pace. Even if you were to spend an entire month studying for one exam, you are still three months ahead of the traditional students. So a few extra days is neither here nor there.
Go with your gut CT!
Best of luck,
