Two resources I recommend that you read throroughly, given your time frame (which is perfect for GMAT study):
  • Beat The GMAT Blog - My day-to-day study guide for preparing for the GMAT
  • GMAT Resources Directory - Take a look at the Strategy area, there are some great links there for structuring your prep
Best of luck!

To what Eric said, I would add that you may look at the "I Just Beat The GMAT" section of the site to get some great ideas from people who have succeeded. In my own debrief I write about those study strategies that worked vs those that didn't work in my gmat prep. You can see it at (www.tinyurl.com/gmatpost).
