11- closer to saying bye bye to school/more freedom, a lot of exams and mocks leading to stress

Overall, we believe that Year 11 would be a better year to remain in, due to the fact we're already here. Eventually we'll have to go through this, meaning that there is no point in going back to return to this same point]]> 2018-01-22 08:37:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cmcguckin_wis1/aqswlnawfm87/wish/223229239 https://padlet.com/cmcguckin_wis1/aqswlnawfm87/wish/223229291 year7
-Less pressure
-3 years to not worry about exams
-More school years left
-Less worrying with what you want to do with your life
-Forced to do subjects
-Less independance 

year11
-Last year of gcse so lots of pressure
-Less school years left  
-Start worrying about future i.e. uni and what you wanna do with your life     
-Able to select subjects
-More independence than year 7's
-College and uni independence may be exciting

I would choose year 11 as there will be less school years left and although there is pressure, its a good way to prepare you for the future when dealing with stress

Closer to the end of GCSE's, and I would be stress-free soon.
The subject choices are some that I enjoy, instead of many subjects that are compulsory in year 7

Year 7 - 
Students do not have to worry about exams
Have more free time for other activities (outside school)
Holidays can be enjoyed, instead of being used to study for mocks/GCSE's.

I'd still prefer year 11, because if I was in year 7, I'd have to go through 3 more years before getting to GCSE level where I can choose which subjects I'd prefer to study and therefore (kind of) enjoy school.
