I saw the programming thread so i know there are some pretty knowledgeable posters on here
Ok I just recieved my national diploma in Business from college. (2 year course)
Unfortunetly certain problems came up and I didnt get into the University I wanted (applied late and woman problems), so really im left with a year to work here or go abroad if i wish.
Just asking for advice on the things i should do career wise with my gap year, if im going to take a solid year off I want to make it as productive as possible.
I was thinking of studying a part time course to gain more qualifications and apply to work in a bank. Anything that relates to the course I am going to study next september at University will be helpful.
(Business Innovation and enterprise degree)
(PS: University is usually the next step to college here in the UK, first u go to college and then University to get a degree)
Any help will be helpful my fello getbiggers!

start a home business from 8 til 12 every day.
Get an internshop job in afternoons (so you'll have more than daytime responsibilities and still have mornings free)
1 night a week, take a foreign language, CPR, or other professional communitity involvement class to pad resume so 2008 isn't a dead year.
Every weekend, embark upon ONE project which can pad the resume. one week, spend 3 hours learning 6sigma quality. next week, something else. Pile them on. 3 words in resume skills area = 4 hours study alone.
every other month, earn a professional certification of some type.
Split up the time, make 30 goals for the year, and nail them all.
In 2002, I went from an idiot elementary school teacher who didn't own a computer and couldn't operate a floppy disk (professor teased me in front of the class)... to a school computer network admin with A+/Net+, MCP, an AS in computer networking, and teaching adult web design - IN ONE YEAR. I just decided I was tired of wasting time, and in one year I went from completely clueless to running a network. I read nonstop, bluffed, researched, networked, called up friends when I got in jams, etc.

She's probably more suited for street prostitution.
