Not years, but if you prepare with full dedication, 3-6 months is enough time to prepare for UPSC prelims exam. You are anyways halfway there when you do an integrated preparation for both Prelims and mains together and shift your focus only to prelims 2-3 months prior to the exam. It is sufficient time to crack Prelims with a good score. Although you can take Prelims test series to check your preparation level before you sit for the real exams.
