You can write CVs in anything from Word to blood, but if you can't spell you probably won't land a brilliant job.
What course are you on? Maybe you should swap courses to something you are interested in.
Get educated, then take a year off doing whatever the hell you like.
Frst of all, why has it suddenly become an issue one week before term begins? Do you have health problems, have trouble with your studies, feel bored with college, or have trouble with lovelife or friends? Are you being bullied? Do you secretly want to drop out of college, rather than take a year off?
You need to be able to talk it through logically with your parents and your teachers if you want to make a good case for having a gap year. Also, gap years need planning well in advance if you want to get the best out of them.

If you wait until you are 18 you will find that you have more options.
