It varies from individual to individual. Generally, people prepare for one entire year preparation before their first prelims exam. Few people even prepared just (7-8) months. But one thing you need to keep in mind about the exam is (3 stages of exam and announcement of final result ) this process takes around (10-11 months). So approximately you have to spend 1.5-2 years for the whole process (preparation+exam)to complete. I hope this helps you.Thanks and Regards! read less
