The material you selected for your preparation is sufficient. If you ask me, I'll say 3 months are appropriate time for GMAT preparation provided we utilize our time properly and efficiently.

In addition to the above point, taking frequent test from recommended source is very helpful.

- Schedule your study plan
- Stick with that plan.
- Complete your daily task at any condition.
- Give lots of practice test.
- Work on your mistakes
- Last but not the least, don't waist ample time on PR and on Kaplan.


Official Guide (10th, 11th or 12th edition) is the main book for GMAT preparation, spend more time on OG rather then on other books.

I suggest you should follow below books :

Best of luck!!
