Wow
vocabularies I have learned in this video/programme:
1. Gap year: a year between leaving school when starting university that is usually spent for traveling and working
2. at the back of my mind: an idea we don't remember frequently but keep stored in our memory.
3. productive: it describe something that leads for a good or useful outcome
4. predicted: an estimation of what is happening in the future based on current information
5. an alien concepts: means a weird idea
6.practical: When you are doing something practical, you are doing something real and useful because you learned skills that may can use in the future

A gap year is considered a precious time for students who want to gain experience for themselves first. I really want to have a gap year; however, it is not a common thing in my country, Vietnam. In case that you dont enroll a university after graduting from highschool, definitely you're seemed to be a bad person or you could be judged by others, especially your neighborhood. I absolutely hate people who judge others just because of their education.

I love British Council for giving the opportunity to learn English!
As for me, a gap year should be taken if you havent decided yet what you want to become in the future after finishing the school, maybe its better to work for a while and decide not in a rush what is your own career path, better to spend one year on thinking than four years in despair. Thanks.

Gap year is more appropriate for students who don't have idea about what they want to do but not only it can be a good experience. If I could come back I would like to take a gap year. I kept that idea at the back of my mind.

A great video! In Vietnam, taking a gap year is an idea strange because the parents don't agree and don't support it. So, why almost students in Vietnam don't have some good skills and experiences after leaving the university

The concept of Gap year in Japan is a little different. Most people take a gap year not to travel abroad or gain work experience as it is said in the video, but to study in order to enter the University they want to.

Gap year in China means taking a year doing some other stuff no connection with your original life.
I took a gap year to NewZealand for working holiday, it's an amazing year.

In MENA region, where I live, the gap year is such an irrelevant idea that I didn't know about till now. And almost no one takes a year off after hight school.

Although we drifted apart for more than 3 years but her face is somehow at the back of my mind out of nowhere which makes me feel nostalgic a little bit!:((
