[quote=Anonymous]I think that any kid who is undecided should take a gap year. A lot of kids end getting lost or caught up in the independence and partying that goes along with the first year in college (particularly if going straight to college). If planned right, a gap year could give a kid significant growth and maturity to avoid some of these issues. Plus, if a kid is able to secure a decent internship, he/she will have an edge over his/her peers. In fact, if an internship goes well, the kid might even be able to continue that internship remotely while in college. Later on, while in college, the kid would already have a decent resume when applying for other jobs at college recruiting events. [/quote]
