Ok, so you definitely want to crank those two out.

That's the plan, Coach! PPP is March 2 and I've planned to take CDS March 10, because they are so similar. Any advice?

Only that CDS is more important if you don't pass both.

Try to get your hands on as many practice questions as possible. The Gang Chen CDs book has a practice exam, and obviously Kaplan and Ballast have some as well. Did you try testing yourself with flashcards - archiflash, for example?
