Should I mention my unemployment GAP 3

[danchoi03]

Hey guys,

I quited my job in the midddle of September of last year so I could get free time to study for the PE exam in October 2008. I found out that I passed the exam 3 weeks ago. My question is should I mention to future employers that I quited my job to study for the exam or should I make up some excuses why I quited my job? The reason I ask because a lot of recruiters ask me why I quited my job and I told them I need time to concentrate on the PE exam. After I told them that they never return my calls. Now, I desperately need help because I need a job. My discipline is Mechanical and I have 3.5 years of experience under my belt.

However, most I know, are pretty good in their mother tongues. We might not use flamboyant words but we tend to have pretty good spelling and grammar. (I guess just proves your point but expands it to other languages)
