difference between 計画を立てる and 計画をする？


Is there any difference between 計画【けいかく】を立てる【たてる】 and 計画をする? In _Sou Matome
N3_ , the first one appears as " _to make plans_ ", as for the second one
(being a _suru verb_ ), I assume that it can also be associated with _to make
plans_.




I think there is almost no difference in their meanings, and the two phrases
are almost always interchangeable. I said almost because I can not think of
even a single counter example in a few minutes as a native speaker.

By the way, you can also use a verb, '計画する', without 'を' in a similar way. For
example,

  * 旅行の計画を立てる。
  * 旅行の計画をする。

are similar to

  * 旅行を計画する。

The first two sentences are not completely the same as the last one. The last
sentence sounds to stress more that the decision is made to go to a trip
compared to the first two, which sounds to have more stress on deciding on the
details during the trip.
