Question Taking Multiple Certifications within 2 weeks - Crazy, Stupid or Wise

Hello All-

So I have decided to push the envelope!!!!!! I have been a Lead Auditor for about 5years (Completed Lead Auditor training). I have also been in human resources for 10years plus and served as a generalist to a director. At work I kinda serve in both roles HR and Quality.

I've been studying since May to take the CQA exam Oct 4 (Boston), the CQM exam Oct 6 (Boston), and the CQPA Oct 14 (Balitmore).

I will have to travel a distance for the exams but I will already be the area.

There is alot of overlap between the CQA and the CQPA, and not so much for the CQM.

I will be completing my applications for each exam next week.

I would like to know from those of you that have completed these exams, am I crazy, stupid, or an over acheiver. If you have any helpful tips I would greatly appreciate it.

If you're prepared for them, it's just another day, correct? An efficient method, if, as I mentioned, you're ready for them.
