    As of today, any kind of gap in education or your career, has to be justified. You have not mentioned the reason for the gap. You can definitely look at taking time off, to prepare for the CAT exam and ensure that you score a minimum of 99 percentile. You have to necessarily target the top 30 B Schools in India. A word of caution. CAT is a highly unpredictable exam, in terms of the pattern. It keeps on changing, year to year. Unshakable faith in your skill sets, will make you a winner
