Justifying gaps! Few valid reasons
1. Improving Score
Scored low in 10th or 12th? You may claim that you were expecting more scores and you re-appeared for any test
2. Family does matter
You may cite an unavoidable case that would have happened in the family. Just be real and explain your situation with integrity
3. Job-Related
Any job-related matter, like you wanted to do ‘this’ job or you needed ‘such’ experience or anything like that. Give every possible detail with a justifiable explanation. Even if you would have left jobless for a while after studies, it can be explained honestly. And more! So, justify your study gap with proper reasons & a gap of over 5 years does not matter at all.
