First of all....Chill!!
Time is not less for you.
Great that you got hold of the bible for GMAT - OG11 !!
First, Take the Diagnostic Test in OG-11 and it will show your strengths and weakness.
Second, Make a time-table for the next 4-5 weeks...day wise. Stick it on the wall/board/TV so that it keeps reminding of your target. And more importantly, follow it religiously. Have a mix of topics to study to avoid burnout. Devote first week to your weaker areas. If you miss study hours any day, make it a point to make it that same week.
Third take GMATprep1 to see where your present score stands before preparation
Fourth, download ManhattanSC guide and OG-10 from esnips.com. It is bible for SC. You can get the maximum improvement in SC with the least efforts!
Keep practising a test every weekend.
you can have manhattan test series (6-tests).
GMATprep2 should be kept for the last week before GMAT.

Cheers!!!
