As a Running Start student that will start my Freshman year with the equivalent of one-two years done, should I plan on jumping into grad/med school or take time off once I receive my bachelors?

The concern is that as a Running start student I will have the possibility of graduating with my bachelors before my 21st birthday. Will taking a year off after that help me be more accepted at the next level or does it not matter ? #runningstart #medical-school
