Work Internship\High School Exchange in the USA

I'm really wanting to go to the USA to do this (or a GYC in the Army ). Can anyone point me in the correct direction.

I've perused a couple of sites, but I'm just really looking for your opinions on companies you've done this with.

Thanks,
Sean

Gap Year Commission. Joining the army for your gap year, and doing officer Training at Sandhurst (UK's main army thing). Your commission involves you going overseas and doing stuff there (a short synopsis )

anyway, it sounded good so I reckoned i'd apply.

i'd just like to do my gap year in a foreign country, just to see another part of the world

Getting into the US is harder than ever. Our students were shocked this year at the red tape involved in getting here.

Hey, the US is no foreign country.

But it's so similiar to England, that if you really want to see a new place, why not also look at Asia/Australia?

Gap year is a year you take between leaving school and joining university.

Well I'd just like to experience the states, its something i've always fancied doing.

I was wondering if anyone had been away anywhere on anything similar?
