[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As for "gap year" as a hip new trend --- I have no idea what you're talking about and I know of 5 teens currently undertaking a gap year. Most have to do with maturity (probably because their parents didn't give them the (gap) year when they were 5) or working to save for college tuition. [/quote] Yes, the fact that you know 5 kids doing it probably reflects that fact that it's a hip new trend. The idea has been heavily marketed in the US recently, some colleges have changed admissions policies to accomodate it, and local privates are increasingly flagging it as an option. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203513204576047723922275698.html[/quote]
