Haha. Which goes back to Luke being a quick study and pretty powerful. From "A New Hope" to "Empire" is 4-5 years, and I want to say "Jedi" is a year after "Empire." Luke learned a lot in that year, it seems.
I am beginning to wonder more how time "works" in the films. I mean, how long does their hyperspace travel actually take between star systems? Can't be instantaneous. Should at the very least be weeks or months, but I'm willing to bet it is implied to be only hours. However, good evidence that its longer than we think is that somehow Boba Fett beats the Falcon to Bespin, alerts Vader, and has Vader beat the Falcon as well to set up the deal with Lando.
Edit to add: More time (weeks) would also help with the bond Luke forms with Obi-Wan and the training he gets from him as they travel to Alderaan. Also, more time allows for the Rebellion to actually study the Death Star plans to come up with their attack before the Death Star gets there (but that is hurt by the fact that Luke and Leia are obviously wearing the same dirty clothes in the briefing).

Boba Fett and Vader beat the Falcon to Bespin because the Falcon's hyper drive was broke so they were traveling sub-light.
