Hello Bhavya,

There are few important things one you should take care while preparing for IIMs or FMS. 

  • Class 10th and 12th percentage(above 90%)
  • Graduation CGPA at least above 8
  • Job experiences
  • CAT score

So, the gap year will not at all affect your selection in any of the top b-schools. Just take care of things mentioned above. Thought the most important part is CAT score. Also, I suggest you to get a job experience in the year you are dropping. You can also apply to diploma courses other wise it is fine to drop now.
