Series 79 timeline

Taking the S63 next week and then have to start the 79. How long did it take you guys to study for the Series 79 (hours/weeks/months)? I'm using Knopman Marks. I know its technical-heavy, I have experience in college-level finance classes so hopefully I'll already know some of it. I also work a full time job so I'm trying to figure out how to best allocate my spare time. Thanks in advance.
