Taking time off from school during undergrad/grad school seems to be more common now than ever at least between my friends and our parents.
I will be taking a year off from school this year after two years of undergrad but am not really sure what to do to be honest. Would love to stay in school but in order to change my major I have to take time off to apply to a different degree program.
What did you guys do? Travel, work, independent study? Combination of these or something else?
What type of perspective did your time off give you? Did you find yourself returning to school with a leg up on your classmate who "stayed on track" or did you find yourself behind or having trouble concentrating?
