CFA Pre-level 1 for Liberal Arts Major with very few quant skills

I am interested in setting for the June exam. I am a recent graduate in liberal arts. I have no math background. I am looking to devote 30hrs per week of study time starting in mid February. Roughly about 400 hrs of preparation.

Is it possible to use only the CFA institute prep materials and accomplish my goal of passing the exam? I have heard about Schwesser but I really do not have the extra money. Any input will be valued.

Thanks!
