 Rachmaninoff Prelude C# Minor. I need guidance

Hello fellow forum members. I am very enthusiastic about playing this prelude by Rachmaninoff. I have to troubles, however. One, I don't know if it is my level. I am currently wrapping up Waltz Op. 34 no. 2, and I have a lot of progress in a nocturne of Chopin, op 72. in E minor. I've also done the first page of the famous C# Minor nocturne. I have been self taught for 3 years, and just got a piano teacher 3 weeks ago. Is this prelude my level, is my question. I would like a stretch, even it is difficult.
Next, I need a clear way for learning this piece, memorizing it and playing it well. I would like a plan on to approach this beautiful piece. (By the way, how do I add the sheet picture of this piece under my post. I am new here so...)
I would like to know which pedals to use where. Does anyone have the sheet music with pedal marks. I don't know where to use damper pedal

 Suggestion Diabolique

How hard is it to play Prokofiev's "Suggestion Diabolique"? Is it much harder than Rachmaninov's Prélude Op. 23 Nr. 5 or Rachmaninov's Prélude Op. 3 Nr.2 ?
Thx.

Rachmaninoff prelude - continue op. 23 #5 or try C# minor?

Hello,
I'm new to this forum and not a native English speaker, so I'll have to ask for some understanding!
I've been trying to learn Rachmaninoff prelude op. 23 #5 for several weeks, and my piano teacher told me that I could do it, but only by working several hours a day (which I don't have). I absolutely love this piece, though.
She suggested switching to C# minor instead. There's an audition in the end of june and she thinks I can do the latter, but that the former is too risky.
My problem is that I listened to several interpretations on YouTube, and both pieces need speed. Is C# minor really easier ? Or is it easier only if you play it slowly -- which I honestly don't feel like doing?
Thanks for your help! I'm a bit discouraged here :-)

"I was in Poland the past summer to give 2 concerts. At the last minute they requested some Chopin, which I had not brought with me. So, I google-searched for classical downloads and found your site. I was able to print out excellent editions of the pieces I needed within minutes. To find the scores locally would have been inpossible as it was a smaller town, the nearest music store 45 minutes away."

"Piano Street has been a wonderful tool to me as both a pianist and a piano teacher. I can browse the collection for pieces I want to play and/or have my students play. The difficulty rating system that Piano Street uses enables me to search by difficulty level for pieces at my students' various playing levels. It is helpful that many of the scores include an audio clip of the piece being played. I have recommended to my advanced students that they also join Piano Street since getting sheet music from there is a much less expensive alternative to ordering and paying for the music.
