Gap year students
Hi everyone! I know it's that time of year where UCAS is at the forefront of every year 13s mind and a lot of you may be considering deferring entry or may already have decided to do so. Gap years aren't talked about much in school (at least from my experience) and I think it's very hard to figure out whether or not they're actually right for you. Often the best way to figure out whether or not you should do a gap year is to speak to someone who has but again that can be difficult as they're not massively common. My best friend is currently doing a gap year in Japan, she's been there for a week and is keeping a blog of her experiences that may help you to decide what's right/ wrong for you. If you want more information about gap years or to generally here about an English girls perspective of life in Japan follow @emilysyearinjapan Thank you!
