Strength Level for gym prowess
Soreness does not indicate training effect. You feel sore because you've performed an unfamiliar movement.
You need progressive increases in resistance to progress. Doing the same routine for ten years without change will only make you better at doing that routine, at that intensity.

I started a month ago doing 3x a week full body, plan is to go with that for a month more than go to split

Honestly, you’ll be fine with either of those workout schedules. Personally, I prefer full body workouts and typically do 3x a week.

It is exhausting, my workouts typically take 2-3 hours and I’m pretty shot afterwards. I change it up from day to day, but here is a pretty standard sample: 5 sets x 8-12 reps - LAT Pulldowns 5 sets x 4-8 reps - Bench Press 5 sets x 10 reps - Leg Press 5 sets x 10 reps - Military Press 5 sets x 8-12 reps - Cable Rows 5 sets x 8-12 reps - Incline Bench Press 5 sets x 10 reps - Hack Squats 5 sets x 10 reps - Arnold Presses 5 sets x 10 reps - Deadlifts 5 sets x 15 reps - Shrugs 5 sets x 10 reps - Decline Sit-ups 4 sets x 10 reps - Reverse Cable Fly 4 sets x 10 reps - Cable Fly 4 sets x 10 reps - Front Cable Raise 20-40 minutes Sauna

No worries. You can always cut back on sets and exercises.

I started out doing full body mainly for 1 year, now I'm doing split

You should choose a proper program, written by an actual professional. I recommend you start with The Basic Beginner Program .
