you will be able to finish webprep and the note within one month and don't forget the qbook. then do the 2nd review and add your note into FA, in the mean time, do NBME form 1. then start your qbank. By the end of 2nd month, u should finish 1/2 of qbank. then do NBME form 2. If you got 500 or above, u are ready to take the exam in one month and aim for 90s. In the last month, focus on FA and eak area in kaplan note.

I hope u like this approach.

Good luck

anu, I spent about two and half month, average if 7 hours per day, and I studied FA and step up plus qbank. I passed with a 75 but I believe the exam was much harder than the qbank. You might get an easier version. The point is, 3 months should be enough as long as it's solid.
