Hi Ive been told to consider a gap year by my tutor as I dont have enough work experience to be confident at interviews or even get one.
Heres a breakdown:
GCSE: 1A*10A1B
AS grades BCCD (Biol Chem Phys Maths)
Aiming for 2A*A at A2.
(I flopped at AS and didnt study much especially in maths where I got a U in C1.)
So I do know a gap year is a very good option for me but im really worried of the higher expectations and stuff due to me taking a gap year.
Also how does a gap year work?
I started Yr13 In September and was going to apply by Oct15th,
but now that im taking a gap year do i still apply and say in my personal statement that i am intending to take a gap year?
Or
Do I not apply this year but next year as if I was in Yr12 Right now ?
i.e apply Oct 2017 not 2016.
thanks..
