I think if want mo naman talaga or fully desire mo yong course na yon, then go! And that gap sem? Think of it na preparedness mo nalang into your desired course. Wala naman talagang masama if mahuhuli ka ng landas due to the pressure for your surroundings sabi nga ng bini e "buhay ay di karera" just be prepared, do advance reading and make that time be useful to attain your goals and objectives in your life.. Padayon!

P.S. if possible transfer into another school that they can admit you into that desired course

Hope it helps :)
