The duration of time between the completion of your graduation and your admission to the business school will be considered as a gap year. Therefore, considering the fact that you will complete your graduation in May, 2024 and get admission to an MBA college in May, 2025 after completion of your entire selection process, this will be considered a one-year gap. However, technically it will be a 6 to 7 months gap only between the completion of your graduation and appearance in the entrance examination.

However, there is no need to worry about this one-year gap as you can easily justify it during the Personal Interview process. You can justify this gap by doing Internships, Certificate courses, pursuing something related to your area of interest, making the interviewer realize the need to invest substantial amount of time in entrance exam preparation or by any other legit means. This gap year will not impact your selection chances in the business school.
