Cousin Unsure About College or Gap Year

Your cousin has just graduated from high school and is unsure whether to go straight to college or take a gap year. They’ve asked for your advice. What would you suggest?

“It’s a big decision to choose between college and a gap year, and I understand your hesitation. One option could be taking a gap year to explore different fields through internships or travel; this way, you can gain hands-on experience and learn more about your interests. On the other hand, if you’re already sure about a career path, starting college might help keep your momentum going. Ultimately, choose the path that feels right for you. Whichever way you go, remember it’s about finding what suits you best. Good luck with your choice!”
