How long does this takes?
Couple of days, a week maybe, depending on travel distance

So basically nothing here suggests that months need to pass, yet alone a year or more.

Yoda right before Luke fights Vader: Luke! You must complete the training[…]Only a fully trained Jedi Knight with the Force as his ally will conquer Vader and his Emperor.

Yoda a few days later, after Luke gets his ass handed to him by Vader: No more training do you require. Already know you that which you need[…]One thing remains. Vader. You must…confront…Vader.

Sorry dude, but that makes no sense. Either Luke spent some time training on his own while he was busy working with the rebellion, making plans to free Han, and coping with the world-shattering revelation that his dad is Space Hitler…or Yoda has a bad case of Alzheimer’s.

Sorry dude, but what you say makes no sense at all.
If Luke had time to train, he would have gone back to Yoda. He did not.
Making plans? Really? This plan takes 5 minutes of thinking. Not months.
Busy? Really? With what? The most important thing for Luke was to learn to become a Jedi, and free Han.

Yoda was right that only a fully trained Jedi can defeat Vader. And Luke failed as expected.
But he learned a lot from his duel against Vader. He learned what he needed to defeat Vader.
So he was now ready.

We all know that Luke was not ready for the Emperor.
No one in his right mind can think that anyone can prepare against this kind of power on his own, when not even a fully trained Jedi knight. Even Jedi masters failed. And you think Yoda didn’t know that?
Yoda knew that the father-son factor could incline events in their favor.
This was their last hope.
So Yoda was merely trying to build up Luke’s confidence, and as we all know, the Jedi are pragmatic, so they are lying liars if that suits their agenda.

People need to except the fact, that many times, what the Jedi say is not the truth.
