Hi All,
I am planning to take my GMAT in late Feb/early March, which gives me about 2 months in terms of preparation.
My target score is 700+.
I am currently in full-time employment, and will have to study whilst working. So will be focussing on my GMAT studies approx 2-3 hours every evening after work.
Any hints/tips on the best way to go about my preparations?
Is 2-3 hours per day for 2 months going to be sufficient ?
Thanks.

That should be enough time; depends more on you, your test-taking skills, and how diligent you are in sticking to your schedule. So far, sounds good. Do one question type at a time for a good half hour, then switch to another type. That will help you get into a good groove so you can pick up errors faster. Review your answers after 5-8 questions, though, so that you don't keep making the same mistakes during that half hour.
Take a timed test each weekend, and carefully review the results. Compare them to how you did in untimed practice, and adjust your areas of focus as you go.

Thanks buddy.
I kicked off my studies with the Princeton Review "Cracking the GMAT" book.
Have also bought the OG 11th Edition as well as the OG Verbal and Quantitative guides.
I have purchased the ManhattanGMAT Sentence Correction, after hearing some very good comments and recommendations about it.
I also have the Kaplan 800 book.
I have started with focussing on the Quantitative preparations in my 1st week. My second week will be focussed around the verbal portion.
In the quantitative side I have broken down my prep into the following areas:
Algebra
Arithmetic and Geometric Progressions
Arithmetic Mean, Median, Mode, Deviation
Inequalities
Data Sufficiency
Geometry
Solid Geomoetry: Mensuration, Volume, Area
Number Systems/Theory
Percentages
Permutation and Combination, Probability
Profit & Loss
Quadratic Equations
Ratio, Proportion, Variance
Set Theory
Simple & Compound Interest
Speed, Time, Distance
Work & Time, Pipes & Cisterns
In my first 2 weeks my focus is around covering the questions .. understanding the fundamentals inside out ...rather than trying to answer questions under timed conditions.
I plan to take my first practice test from the Princeton Review at the end of week 2. From then on, I intend to take a test every week. And will start to practice answering questions under time restrictions etc.
Thats the thinking so far ... will see how I get on and then take it from there.
