Hello,
I could really use some insight into the situation, I am in.
I am an Architecture student who graduated in 2020 from Manipal University India, with an 8-9 month internship experience prior.
and I worked in two companies one as a client-facing excitive and in pre-sales in a small pharma startup. each being 6-7 months following it
I decided to study for the GMAT and apply for round two or three depending on scores. with a turn of events, I got covid and am in the spot where I can't apply for the round 3 deadlines because I'm too sick tired to keep my scores where it needs to be.
I wanted to know if taking a gamble on R4 is worth it. or should I wait 6 months to apply in Sept. The only issue is I am not sure how to pad my resume and I have been not working since September 2021 as I was studying for the GMAT. I really am worried as to what would be the smart step forward here. and worried that a gap in the CV or have had around 2-3 years of work experience depending on if admiisons committee count the internship prior to my uni will count as work ex would hamper my chances of getting in.
could really use some insight, thank you.

Hi ashmithas , hello from a fellow Manipal alum!
I would have been able to better advise you if you had mentioned your GMAT score. If you feel you have a competitive GMAT and are prepared for presenting a compelling case in your application then you could target R4. But since you mentioned that you are worried about the career gap since Sept 2021, it seems you are yet to fine tune some aspects of your narrative.
I have helped applicants with more than a year of professional gap get invites from top B Schools and I am sure there must be some aspects (extra curriculars or community involvement) that could help connect dots around your career break.
If you wish to seek professional guidance on crafting application strategy do reach out
