In 1980’s, I heard they used to lock themselves one or two years from outside world and prepare for the exam.

Yes, correct..... Earlier study material collection from different sources was very difficult, I think that itself took 20-30 % prep time but now they are easily getting previous questions papers set, all the study materials in a pen drive like engg all in one.... Some institutions say just prepare the provided study material which will easily help to crack the exam..
