GMAT beginner, where to start?

Hello,

I will be doing the GMAT for the first time in the middle of August. That gives me about 17 weeks to prepare. However, I have no clue about where to start or what to buy. I am doing my last year as an undergraduate now and will be graduating by the end of the year

1. Is this prep-time reasonable for getting a 650+ score? (highly individual, I know. Just wondering about the time-frame)

2. Could someone point me in the right direction on where to start, how much to study, what to buy, etc?

Thanks!

Most people study 50 to 100 hours for the GMAT.
