Hi everyone!

I just recently graduated from UC Berkeley in May of this year and am now in the process of applying to applying to MA and PhD programs in East Asian Studies. I'm in theory taking a gap year at the moment to focus on applying to these programs. Do you think it's important to explain this minor educational gap in my SOP? If so, does anyone have any tips on doing so?

Thank you!

There's no need to explain anything. If you're doing work/research related to your grad school interests during your gap year, then you may want to briefly talk about it in your SOP.
