In some countries, many young people choose to work or travel for a year between finishing high school and starting university studies. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages./ what are the advantages and disadvantages/ do you think the advantages have outweighed the disadvantages?

In

development of transport vehicles.

Therefore

, young people nowadays tend to prefer taking a gap year to explore everything they want to before entering

university

and starting their new studying conditions. In my perspective, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks since

students

by providing them with a mental maturity stage, improving communication

can raise a specific budget.

will provide an important experience for a student to manage their studies with work and help with their tuition fees and subsistence expenses.

to understand the working pressure, cooperate with coworkers, and complete tasks on schedule.

For instance

, a youngster working as a waiter or waitress can learn how to convince and cool down
