If the high school grad. is motivated and knows their own natural likes/strengths plus has some paid part-time/summer work experience, then they should capitalize on their drive/motivation. I knew several people who didn't go for college/university but they delayed going back to school too long (several years) or some just never pursued it, but kept on working same type of jobs.
I was working part-time for large blocks of months during my 5 years at university. Coming from a poor family, the options became very tight. None of my siblings took any gap year...all were like me.
