Will a gap of 1 and half year after engineering create any kind of issue for my admission in top B-Schools?

I am preparing for CAT. After doing my engineering, I took a break for UPSC preparation but couldn't make through it and couldn't find a suitable job.

See, having a gap is not a big issue, they just want to know a valid reason. The interviewer will be curious to know that why you have a gap. And scoring high in exams will definitely provide you edge over other competitors.
