I have a gap of three years now. I was preparing for CDS and AFCAT exams. Now there is a medical ineligibility so I cannot prepare for that anymore. I did my grads in CS from DU(BSc)and have 80+ profile in 10th, 12th and grads. I was waitlisted for SRCC GBO for its management program and now I have one interview left for JBIMS MHRD(MBA in HR) I'm doing internships in HR to build my profile. Will these gap years impact my selection in MBA provided that if I don't get selected in JBIMS I will be going for CAT and other management exams? Please guide in this regard. As I'm looking for a career in HRM what should I do now?

Ans: Gap years will affect your selection. But if you get a high percentile it is still possible to get into a good college. See if possible if you dont get a college this year then take up a job and prepare along with job.
