I am a student who has secured admission to a Tier 1 NLU this year. I am a dropper and passed 12th grade last year. Throughout this year, I have been preparing for another exam, but now I realize that I have no chance of qualifying. Therefore, I will join the Tier 1 NLU. Will my gap year be a disadvantage when securing internships, PPOs, etc.? I have not engaged in any major extracurricular activities during this time. Your guidance will be greatly appreciated.

No. Took had a three-year gap before joining T1. Had no issues in securing internships and later PPOs in my fourth year.
