6th Form :shade:

Coz its the closest atmosphere and environment that I got to school and I loved it!
 
College, coz if like me you went to a close knit school before, it prepares you for uni, if you plan to continue your studies, as your left to your own devices and study more outside the lectures :D

Haha thats tru ^^

School for me was segregated and 6th Form was in same building aswell...Uni was like a massive shocker for me .... too many dudes for my system to cope with... so I guess if ur considering uni....take the above advice on board ^^
 
yeh inshallah i'll go to uni but u never know whats gonna happen.

I have studied one year in a 6th form, afterwhich is switched to a college. And honestly a college is much better, first of all much more freedom is given to u(like stated above it prepares u for uni)

Teachers are more professional (i even believe better in most cases). They are only dedicated to teach college level, unlike high school in which teachers teach both ways.

So think about it, and dnt rush into it :)

id rather go college...but then agen 6th form could be good too:-\ im in 2 minds at the moment too :?
 
It depends on the individual really, if you are the type of person that needs to be pushed to get your work completed then 6th form is the place for you. I know college prepares you for uni, but there's no point going if your not ready. If you slack, then you'll FAIL! Teachers will not be running after you to get your assignments completed. I know of many ppl who got A*'s in thier GCSE's and then failed @ A-Levels because they were not used to the college life.

^ Thats true! Thats why the poll would prove useless. It will all come down to u ukhti.

One thing to note aswell is that when ur in 6th form u will probally have alot of friends. Which can be a distraction from learning, that happened with me(i went nd failed that year). Second year however i went into a college nd i ddnt know anyone, nd the atmosphere was more serious (more suitable to study) no kids running around, everyone seems to be getting on with their work. And that year i have done really well alhamdulilah :)
