Does anyone have any tips on how to study with a friend? i.e. best practices, study routines, etc?
I'm usually a self study type of guy, but I am taking lunch breaks with a coworker to group study with him twice per week (~1hour per session).
FYI, we both plan on taking the gmat in ~3 months from now and are just starting our studying. He has taken the test once or twice before, I have never, but I have read quite a bit of forum posts about the test and have taken the math practice test (I think I did ok, seeing as I ran out of time with like 7 questions to go, haven't taken or practiced math for like 5 years, and I somehow still got a 46). So in short, while we are just starting our studying, we're not exactly going in from ground zero either.
Also, I have the newest OG guide and the MGMAT complete series. I plan on reading them all, and studying for ~20hours a week for the next 3 months until test time.
Target score for me is the 700+ range (hopefully 720-750).
Any tips or advice on how to group study would be super appreciated.

Wow seems like a very good idea. I would suggest a combination of the following approaches:
Asking for help with questions either of you found difficult during self study sessions
Going through same questions and then compare contrast answers.
This is particularly good for identifying shortcuts and making the most of individual strengths
Finally both can help each other maintain your self study schedule by holding each other to account in terms of studying and practice tests.
Good luck
