No its not important.I think if you gave an exam and not able to clear it just due 10-20 no. gap only then you should drop a year as you will have a good confidence that you will definitely pass the exam next time means you will have surity but on the other hand if you are not able to clear the exam

It is not good giving a gap in the earlier part of your career. You will have a difficulty, justifying it. In the Interview, the question may arise. So, try to do well within the framework.

Yes - provided you utilize each and every waking minute for the target which is ahead of you. If dropping is for a purpose, the effort for that purpose should be the fullest Then, you will reach your goal.

That depends on which compititive exam you want to crack. If its Enginneering and Medical, it is advisable not to waste one year. Enginneerin and Medical exams can be qualified with little love for studies in class 11th and 12th. Exams like IPMAT(Integrated Programme in Management Aptitude Test) req

This will not only save your a precious year but also help you to learning and gaining your 12 core subjects related to specific competitive exam with more ease and varied experience.

In placements the mncs wants you to be a fresher not a dropper it seems to be a good thing to take a pause of a year for competitive but nothing ends up so your grade may improve a bit but that with a lot of hard work.
