Summary: Buy the earlier version
Comment: Although it doesn't look like the 2003 Princeton Review version of this book is different from the earlier version, it is and not just with typefaces. I bought it thinking they might have updated the resources in the back even though the Amazon blurb didn't suggest any changes. I was very surprised that the 2003 version took out the more negative, or human, stories of students who took time off to get back on track. Instead the new book highlights students who ended up at fancy colleges and makes it look like taking a year off is your key to an Ivy League school. Buy the earlier version which is much more balanced.

Summary: This Book Changed My LIFE!!!
Comment: I bought this book when it first came out a few years ago because I wanted to convince my parents that I could take a break before college and still make it a productive year. My dad was really worried that I wouldn't go back to school, but after he read a couple of year-off profiles in "Taking Time-Off," he was much more at ease. I'll be graduating from college this year and I am still so thankful for my year off. I was able to get an internship at a magazine that eventually gave me a job offer! You have to read this book.
