Hello and thanks for your questions.
To try to answer them:
1. It takes different people different lengths of time to prepare for the GMAT. It depends how well you already know the subject matter covered, how quickly you learn, and how much effort and time you put into studying.
2. From what you've said it's very difficult to judge how competitive an applicant you might be. It will depend on the detail of what you've done and achieved during your career and outside work, as well as how you present yourself through your application, your goals and reasons for wanting to do an MBa, and what your recommenders say about you.
3. Whether a 1 or 2 year course is most suitable for you will largely depend on what you want to do after shool, what you need from the program to help you do that, and how big any change of career will be. You also need to consider other issues such as financial costs, the impact of time out of the workplace, and geographical location.
4. In general, 'application season' begins in July/August when schools release their applications for admission to the following year, and the first application deadlines are commonly some time in October/November (all of this varies a bit by school.
Best of luck
