Depends on what you're planning to do in your life and what your long term goals are. Unless you know the destination; there's no point in walking on the path. Assuming you're preparing for CAT 2012; you still have a good long year to prepare. You might just join and work extra hours for your CAT studies.

the break might sometime affect the impression the interviewing panel will have on you. it is best to prepare while working.

It can be a positive impression too; if he justifies it. I'd rather prepare myself to study while working. It's hard, but worth it.

But i've heard from people, who did leave their jobs to prepare for Cat, that when you go for the interview they will obviously question the decision and no matter what tales you spin, it will make the interviewers feel you just can not "multi-task". and what good is a manager if he can't multi task?

my friend was asked this question and she was dumbfounded. So if you still want to use the 9 months for preparation, then please have fitting answers for these questions.
