Problem on exponential growth rate

Atlanta Company stock is predicted to follow an exponential growth rate. The relationship among the current stock price P0, future price PT after time T, and continuously compounded rate of the return r, is: PT = P0eγT. The stock doesn’t pay any dividends and it sells for $55 a share. The continuously compounded expected return of the stock is 13%, with standard deviation of 35%. Determine the probability that the stock will be selling for more than $65 after one year.
