If you decide to take a year off, don't close any doors on your way out. The labour market is brutal right now and you may find yourself in a less than desirable job if you drop out of school.
I know a lot of people who dropped out of school, when in reality they should have stuck out an undergrad of any kind. They find themselves in their late 20s or early 30s with a kid and stuck in a job they hate. They don't have the time or resources to go back and get an undergrad.
The vast majority of undergrads are total BS and you will learn very little. However, it's always a good idea to get one with good grades. That way you can pursue a master's degree when you finally figure out what it actually is you want to do.
I hated my undergrad. I even hated my post-undergrad degree. I love the career it got me though. Although you may hate schooling in general, as many do, it can open a lot of doors.
