My 2 year gap in CV - cherryred - ArchivalUser - 11-14-2008
Hi my creds are step 1 high 80's step 2 low 90's ,cs pass,all 1 st attempt,need visa,2005 grad with 2 years gap in cv.Just have 7 wks observership in a private clinic. The problem i didnt explain my gap in cv as i really didnt work or even volunteer anywhere during that period.
I have 1 iv however by god's grace.
Do you think thisgap might have hindered me from getting more iv's...
Your thoughts friends..

I think same thing is hurting my application badly.....didn't explain the gap...so no interviews and i am old grad, applied late sept., rest of creds same as urs.where do u think we could explain that under volunteer/work experience if none done ?busy with steps and family commitments.
sorry i am of no help, just trying to figure out mistakes and work on them next time.
good luk for ur iv.

yeah sabu1 i think the unexplained gap might be the problem.
Do you think we'll get a few iv calls later on.. that is in the second round of iv's
What do you think
Please friends please guide us on this...
Thanks a lot
