I don't understand how you're meant to save for a gap year.
I am determined to go to Australia in 2013 when I turn 18. The trip will be approximately £5000 for 12 months (however I want to go for 6 months so would this be halved? This price includes insurance, flights, spending money based on 12 months and includes the visa I need). When I apply for the visa I have to be 18, and not allowed to book any travel to Australia until this visa is granted. This means I would have no time to plan as I turn 18 in Febuary and plan to travel in March and come back in September for uni. I just don't understand how there is any way I will get this money, and arrange it all, and book it. It's so stressful! Feels like I should have started thinking about a gap year when I was about 7 and now I feel like this is never going to happen and maybe I should wait until after uni, but then I would be in alot of debt and not be able to afford it either. HOW DO YOU DO IT?!?!!?

I don't remember VSO being an exchange process - we went out there to help build wells or teach etc., they didn't come back to stay with us later.
Gap year! I think i had a gap weekend after leaving school. I got my further education by going to night school and day release to get my HNC. Stressful!! ...... I'm sorry, Mr Lowry, i'm afraid it's cancer. That's stressful!!
