LOOK MY AGE IS 18 GOING ON 19.I PASSED MY 12TH THIS YEAR AND GAVE ENTRANCE EXAMS BUT COULD NOT GET GOOD COLLEGES.
BUT I KNOW THAT IN 2009 I WILL GET THROUGH IIT OR BITS PILANI OR DCE OR GOOD NITS
SO CAN I TAKE A DROP FOR THE SAME CONSIDERING MY AGE AS I WILL TURN 19 NEXT YEAR
WILL IT EFFECT MY CAREER AS I WILL BE GRAUATING FROM ENGINEERING COLLEGE AT THE AGE OF 23 IF I GET INTO IT NEXT YEAR

Do whatever your heart says....
if u feel that u will make it top ins. next year,then u should definitely drop...but if u feel u make ur future bright by studying n working hard in any ins then without wasting a year,join a college...
After u decide,plz tell ...
the people who drop dont freeze their age na ?
dude its fyn
a year drop for a good college, even a mid level NIT is worth it
kuch farak nahi padta if u lose a year of ur lyf, only thing is be determined and get a good college
i am the same age as you and even i am fropping a year
first of all 23 is infact a very young age,and most normal eng grads pass out at dis age.and as far as the iits are
concerned repeaters are very common and infact mejority of them are repeaters.
anyway if you are dropping a year aim for nothing less than an iit or a good nit (by the way my bro is in an nit and
knows many of them who drop even more than one year).
hope that made you feel better .let me know of you disicion
best of luck 
about age i think it doesn't matter,no mnc is interested whether u r 23 or 22 or 24.......................they only wanted u to have good communication skill and passed wid a good cgpa.......................
so dont worry and work hard
BEST OF LUCK
i feel if u think that u r very sure of making into good nits u can take a drop. but understand one thing if u take a drop dont overpressurize urself. dont b so confused man..i agree with nunoxic and intellgirl. i had talked to a proffesor of metallurgy in iit bombay. he said that most of the ppl in iits r droppers.
