 has its drawbacks. There is a possibility that young people might get caught in bad habits that might extinguish their interest in education.
Moreover
, there’s a low chance that students will study any subjects during the gap

, resulting in initial difficulties with a particular course during the first

 of college. Unfortunately, students might get distracted from the main aim of the gap

 and spend their time on something useless for their academic journey.
Overall
, I think that the break moment that’s taken after graduation should be spent on something important and beneficial for a student’s future. In fact, taking a break between high school and the academy is a very good decision, because it can boost the student’s interest in the major they are planning to apply to.
