Dear Karan mathur,
yes it will be considered as gap, since you have 2 years of work experience i recommend you to go for MBA-Executive.
or if you want to pursue MBA then you should make sure about this from IIMs.
good luck

Although you will clear all the cutoffs, but without a really good CAT score probably you will not receive interview call from IIMs. Given these score I would suggest that you should do really well in CAT and try to achieve at least 99.5 percentile. If you get more than 99.5 percentile with more than 95 percentile in all subsections, you will definitely get few interview calls from high ranked IIMs.

Gaurav, you can join a good coaching institute for CAT in your city or you can go for self-study also. In my opinion joining a good coaching is a better option

See,if you quickly for the GDPI round of CAT then they will nothing to worry about your Job experience they will only count your actual experience in terms of year,And if you get admitted in IIM then during the final recruitment you don't have to worry.

People often start preparing after first year. You can also do the same. But all the related books and start solving. Cover topics after topics. But never ignore your graduation studies. Minimum 50% is required to sit in CAT. All the best !!

No no. You should start preparing for CAT once you are about to clear your first year of graduation. A preparation of 18-20 months is more than enough if u work steadily. To pursue mba from a reputed college, try to score well in 10th, 12th and graduation. All the best. Thank you
