In this video I am discussing the value that taking a gap year has in america or better said, the lack there of. Gap years are considered for teens and young adults who are "lost". I am breaking down exactly why that kind of thinking is problematic and unhelpful. I also talk about how viewing a gap year as a resume builder (while in some contexts can be a good thing) sets up the gap year person for failure. Taking a gap year is truly the process of wasting a bit of your time to refocus on what it is you would actually like to work towards. I discuss the tru benefits of a gap year and how america as a country fails students by not recognizing the value in anything that isnt deemed "productive".
