Answer 3

Loads, I took Business Information Technology and learnt loads.  Firslty I built websites this was amazing and so cool to know (Web designer), then i also builst software so that a company could use it for day to day business (Sofware builder).  Then there were modules that used diagrams to gain an understanding of how companies work so you can build a system ti help them with day to day work (systems analyst). I also did financial analysis that consisted of maths such as forecasting etc. I also did access and excel work. I also did computer law as a module.  Quality assurance to see if companies met certain standards etc.  All of this def helps in life and a gap year is def good for experience side of things.  It seriously depends on what you want to do.  I started of with ICT degree but hated networking so changed to BIT.  Very interesting and wouldnt go back on it.   Hope this helps and good luck x
