Yes, three months can be enough to prepare for SNAP, if you have appeared for it earlier or as simultaneously preparing for CAT, XAT and other exams. But if you are planning to appear for SNAP for the first time and not preparing for other MBA entrances, then you should devote atleast 6 months.

You cannot apply for change of test city. You will have to appear for SNAP exam in the city as allotted to you. The test centre is allotted on first come first serve basis, which is why it is very critical to submit the SNAP application form at the earliest.
