Ngunda KakujahaI believe taking a gap year can be invaluable for teens who have just finished school and are uncertain about their future studies. This time allows them to pursue hobbies and activities they enjoy, while also conducting thorough research on potential career paths. A well-deserved break can be crucial when feeling overwhelmed, especially after the challenges of high school. It could ultimately save years spent pursuing a path that isn't aligned with one's true passion or interests.Sunny KaruuombeI do think this is a good decision. Gap years can be useful if one uses that time to take a career guidance test, for example, and explore different avenues of work opportunities to see where their interests lie.Belly KasaonaA gap year before studying in Namibia provides work experience, life skills and clarity on career goals, enhancing academic success and future employment prospects, despite economic conditions.Mehafo AmunyelaGap years are crucial for matriculants to explore industries they might not have known existed. There's no set formula; they can work, take online courses or gain life experience. This flexibility helps them make informed decisions about their future without the undue pressure of immediate choices.Petelina FransI took a gap year and it was amazing. It allowed me to truly figure out what I wanted to do without any pressure.Mandume NekongoI think you should go for it if you have a solid plan and consistent financial support. A gap year can be great for personal growth, provided that you’re prepared for what comes next.
