My personal experience is I went to LSU FAFO lost tops so had to get a job as a roustabout / rough neck in GOM. Went back and forth between working on a drilling rig as a hand and taking engineering courses at LSU. While going to school taking a semester or year off to work was a nice break but it became clear that working on the rigs was not going to be fulfilling to me mentally. If it was just about the money it would have been better for me to just continue working on the rigs but I wanted more.

Having done both I don't think there is anything wrong with either path its just up to the individual as to what they want out of their career. That being said it is a lot to ask of a 18 year old, see my previous statement about FAFO.
