So A level results are out next week. On Monday, DC has announced that university can wait and they are going to have a gap year. They have obviously been thinking about this for a while as their plans are well thought through and detailed.
DC has worked all through the summer with university students. They have earned a good amount of money and listened to what others did in their gap year. It seems no one regrets having a gap year, but lots regret NOT having a gap year.
I would be interested in other young people's gap year experiences or plans.
Should DC defer their university place or reapply? Part of me thinks with grades in hand and having a year out they may want to apply for something completely different. It really is a sliding doors moment.
