Some school leavers travel or work for a period of time instead of going directly to university. What are the advantages and disadvantages for their studies?

Recently, there has been a heated debate in the community about whether school leavers should go straight to

university

or take a

gap

year to travel or work for a

while

. In my opinion, both views have advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, working or travelling for a period of time

instead

of going to

university

directly can make those people more familiar with the working and living environment after graduation, and know the difficulties and hardships of making money, which can make them more enthusiastic about studying after entering

university

. And

students

can

also

take a

gap

year to engage in some high-tech jobs so that they can know where their knowledge is lacking, so they can focus on learning the knowledge they are not good at after entering

university

.

On the other hand

,

students

do not go to college directly but go to work or travel for a period of time, which will increase their time away from campus.

This

will cause them a lot of trouble as they cannot adapt to campus life after they enter the

university

campus. They cannot focus on their studies and life, which may prevent them from passing exams or graduating. And bad habits developed during previous

gap

years may make their studies difficult during college. In general, taking a

gap

year

instead

of going directly to college is

also

an option for

students

.

Students

need to weigh the pros and cons and make a decision that they will not regret.
