Do look up the self-prep menu in the blue bar on top of your page. It has a ton of other useful resources including study plans.

Personally I feel that non-native English speakers would benefit in the GMAT from doing a one-on-one course (perhaps online). I am doing one at the moment on Skype and it is proving to be invaluable. They are not as expensive as you'd think if you shop around a bit.
