Background Check - Inconsistent Resume with Employment Dates.

Hi all, I just got an offer from a MM shop and am going through the background check. On my resume, I listed that I was working on-campus as a TA from September 2010 to May 2012. However, in actuality, I did not work on this TA job during the spring of 2011, because the class was not offered in Spring 2011. I had to re-apply for the job in Fall 2011, and then continued working until May 2012. Given that there's this fairly large gap in employment (around 5 months), do you think the MM I received an offer from will care?
