Gap year if I want to study at Oxbridge?

So my responses from the universities have started to drop in and I am a bit disappointed. I have been thinking about taking a gap year and travel around, meet people and so on. Can I do that and still have a chance to get accepted into Oxbridge if I want to study Law in 2017?

Well it depends what you do in your gap year. You can't just "travel around, meet people" unless you're going to be actually doing something. You also have to have housing, cost of living etc all planned out and maybe have a clear plan of what you want to accomplish in said year. Taking a gap year is definitely not just chilling with people and traveling to cool place and such, anyway best of luck whatever you end up doing. :biggrin:
