anakin was the choosen one and it still took him 12 years
my whole idea behind it was the yoda skipped the long jedi training and taught luke 2 two things to be a jedi. He taught him how to fight, and taught him about hte darkside. luke didnt get all of the morals behind hte force, and the history. known of the logic training and so on. i think yoda left luke to figure all that out himself.
and to warbler, he still beat anakin in the duel, which is really impressive considering that asides from mace obiwan and yoda i dont think any jedi could have beat him. also obiwan beating him was anakins own stupidity. i dont think obiwan could have ever beaten vader. so its really impressive that a 2 year old jedi with only maybe at most couple months of direct training from a jedi master could have done what he did.

And I'm sure Anakin was "fully" trained before 12 years was up. He fell because he was far too weak. Luke had less training but was stronger and managed to overcome the darkside of the force. Did you miss the whole point of the movies? (j/k

I imagine the EU addresses this when it comes to Luke training others to become Jedi, though I would not thought the training would be as long as it was for Jedi in the Prequel Trilogy.
A little patience goes a long way on this old-school Rebel base. If you are having issues finding what you are looking for, these will be of some help…

1) Luke naturally took to the lightsaber and with only a few verbal cues from Obi-Wan was able to 'see' using the living Force.
2) Prior to his introduction into the 'larger world' of the Force, Luke was a whiny brat. The more he used the Force the less and less whiny he got. (again think PT Anakin here)
3) Luke, with no 'canon' evidence that Obi-Wan continued to 'train' him after the events of ANH, trained HIMSELF enough to not only seem wiser by the start of ESB but also to be able to use the Force to move objects (in the Wampa lair).
4) That said, Yoda- despite his reluctance at first to want to train Luke- already had a good starting point with what Luke had already learned on his own.
5) Again with no 'canon' evidence (discounting SOTE which I have forgotten what little I knew about it) to the contrary, it would *appear* Luke continued his own training after the events of ESB. By the start of ROTJ he was a bad-mamma-jamma and after the Jabba affair he went *back* to Yoda to 'complete his training' Yoda tells Luke "No more training do you require. Already know you that which you need." Again, IMHO, by watching the PT I somehow doubt Anakin could have done that.
So basically what I'm saying is that Luke was an aberration but in a good way. In fact I'd even go as far to say that he... raised in more ways than one as the son of a planet of two suns... may be (by actions and not by Lucas' words) the closest to a 'chosen one' that the SW series had to offer.
As for 'old school' Jedi training... good question. The horrific editing and pacing of the PT coupled with the lack of revelation to any of the 'behind-the-scenes' Jedi training gave no clue as to the time period of standard training. Perhaps the Jedi just sit around in a circle and muse about the Force until experience walks in and smacks them in the face.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

i personally think yoda and obi-wan intentionally compacted and reduced the level of training for Luke in reponse to what they probably saw as the decay of the jedi order thanks to hubris and arrogance. i like to think they thought that training Luke in a more vague and general way would contribute to his appreciation and awe toward the Force and his powers, as opposed to the Jedi of the past, who knew the Force so well and studied so much that they almost took it for granted.
