<p>Define disadvantage…are you talking about being admitted? Or being older? Grad school is a long way off… Think of it this way- now you can work and save money for grad school. You can spread your CC out over a longer period, take less credits, work more. You’ll only be one year older than most others (and the same age as many) and have money in the bank. So, turn your perceived disadvantage into an advantage.</p>
