those who took gap years..
What did you do in the year?
who did you go with (meaning company)? I have a brochure for projects abroad and I can get a special placement for medicine and healthcare.
How much did yours cost and where did you go and for how long?
Any tips advice?

No Future
I worked. Why would I pay a company to do a placement? I'd do paid work, not pay to do work.

I worked, then went travelling for three months then worked again - didn't travel through a company though - planned it with friends and we did it - worked out cheaper that way
Bought a round-the-world ticket and got an australian working holiday visa, and disappeared for exactly eleven months and one week - was the best year of my life!
If you've already got a place uni, i.e. you've got deferred entry like I did, then don't waste the year working at home. If you're applying to med school during your gap year then I guess some healthcare-related work experience in the UK and a bit of travelling is the way to go.

Longest year of my life. haha
I worked for WHsmiths for 6 months. Become unemployed through a staff cut. Went to Chicago and Los Angeles for two and a half weeks and now I'm working for WHsmiths again covering peoples shifts.

went to cambodia for a year and worked for a local ngo. i was one of their (ngo) first volunteers so they didn't really know what to do with me. i managed somehow though and i absolutely loved he experience. maybe you should try and find another way to work abroad though - don't pay for it yourself. there are organisations where you can apply and they'll send you. have you tried the red cross or something like that if you're interested in that area?
