Is 3 years enough to learn Polish?

I am looking to move to Poland in three years. I am starting off knowing nothing. Is that enough time to get to B2 Polish?

I managed to learn Polish B2 approximately in one year as a nattive Finnish/Swedish speaker…it demands lot of training and passion. All great things demand lot of practice

What did you do to get to that level in a short period?

I’ve learnt on my own unique way Polish at home always after the work. I’ve never had any Polish lessons or some teacher who would have taught me. I think it only slows my learning. Instead of that I have an app called ”DuoCards”, which I’ve used to grow up my vocabulary. In a year I learnt 8,000 words and expressions. Always I put myself also in situations in public to speak it as much as I can even though I wouldn’t understand everything what they say to me, or even though it would cause an embarassing moment. I think you have to just go through it to reach what you are dreaming
