I get the sentiment, but it would also be good for a lot of people to goto junior college and knock out some pre-reqs at the same time. Also, I think you should make it the whole school year, not just a semester (if we have issues this fall, we're likely to also have them in January and February of next year). This gives you several advantages: 1 - you don't fall a year behind in schooling 2 - you can still start a business, as junior colleges aren't trying to weed out students 3 - your cost will be lower (no room & board, lower tuition) I fully agree with the author that now is a time to try something new, even if you fail completely, you'll learn a lot more than you ever thought you would.
