I just brewed my first batch of beer and its an 'ok' beer. I started with the Coopers Australian Lager Kit. I have bottled the beers and have added one carbonation drop per 500ml bottle, which I was instructed to do. I have now waited 2 weeks in secondary fermentation and have tried the beer and it is a bit flat. Additionally it seems quite light the beer, maybe because of the kit. The only issue I really have is with the carbonation.

If I wait one more week, will the beer be more carbonated?
 
Ya those carb drops suck..... They take quite a bit longer than say, a couple ounces of table sugar. Next time ditch the drops and weigh out some granulated sugar......
