I am considering resigning from my current job to dedicate time to preparing for the GMAT. Here's my background:
Nationality: Indian
Academics:
- 10th: CGPA - 10.0
- 12th: 99%
- B.Tech from an old IIT: CGPA - 8+
- Work Experience: 2.5+ years in Management/Strategy Consulting with a Big 4 firm.
- I attempted the GMAT in early January 2025 after a month of preparation and scored 605. Given the long working hours in my current role,
I find it challenging to allocate sufficient time for focused GMAT preparation.
My plan is to resign next month, serve the three-month notice period, and leave the company by May 2025. This would give me ~3 months to prepare before the first round of MBA applications in August-September.
My key concern:
b) During post MBA job interviews
Assuming I secure admission, I plan to spend the interim period working in my family’s small-scale business overseas before the MBA program starts, to back up my resume with experience. Is this good enough to explain the gap?

Inability to concentrate on GMAT preparations due to a hectic work schedule -- that is a good enough explanation. The adcoms will surely understand that.
