would you/or would have you taken a year off when you were younger?

[tashamjoy]

after high school? before college? or between degrees? or after college graduation to work? I didnt and probably wont but know some people that have how do you guys feel about this? I think a lot of people look down upon this as if you stop education you will never go back which seems pretty common but how to you guys feel about this if it was just a year and did continue with education right after the year?

I didn't take any time off continuing my education. After High school, I went to a vocational school right away, next to a college, then to another college and earned my bachelor's degree. If I had taken some time off between the last two, it probably would of been a good thing for me.

when I graduated I went straight to college but ended up moving out of my parents house and had to drop out due to lack of funds as we all have.   10 years later I enrolled myself in an online course and have been attending for 2 years now.  I would have taken more time when I was younger just so I could up on my feet..Yes some people don't go back because they don't know how to get enrolled in a college that accepts you.  Unless you attend a community college after a few years of high school graduation chances of going back are slim to none although  it's not impossible to get accepted to a popular college but it's a lot harder to apply and supply the reasons why your good enough to attend the school.  So staying in school is a much better choice only for the reasons your mind is fresh on education as to a few years down the road and learning is harder as well...
