It doesn't take 3 months to study for a written exam, no matter how difficult it may be perceived to be (including law and medical exams, where the supposed difficulty is mainly from the sheer amount of information to "memorize"), and as I read more and more people saying things like this the first thing that comes to my mind is "oh look, someone else making excuses." Unless you have other important stuff happening between now and then (like actually working and making money to support yourself), you CAN afford to take a break (even if instead of 32 days it's 16 days) before resuming listening to MLS.
If you paid money for a thing it's because you saw value and/or potential value in that thing. If you truly believe MLS can help you, you will do whatever it takes consciously to help it achieve its goals subconsciously (which should also be in line with your goals). Whether it's from resistance or not, excuses are excuses and fear of success is surprisingly common in students; achieving success means that a person is shown to be capable of obtaining certain results and is usually expected from that point on to deliver certain levels of effort and has to become "self-reliant" to some degree.
Put in the effort and it will be achievable. Even a study method like spaced repetitition allows you to learn the material in two months, or even one. Take the short break as recommended to allow any conflicting subliminal messages to settle, then go back to MLS because you paid for it and at the least should attempt to extract as much return from it as possible.
