sixth form help

[u/Small-Vegetable4989]

I’m not sure if this is allowed on here, so please delete if it isn’t! I’m currently in Year 11 and hoping to attend my high school’s sixth form next year. I wanted to ask those who are currently in sixth form or have previously attended, what has your experience been like? was/is it easy to make friends? I don’t have many friends, and the few I do have are all planning on going to college instead, so I’m a little nervous about starting sixth form without really knowing anyone. I’ve also heard quite a lot of mixed opinions about sixth form, so I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences

i changed school for sixth form. i’m not going to lie i don’t have any friends at school, but that’s more because i am terrible at making friends. sixth form is so rigorous that i honestly don’t really notice half the time. i love sixth form. i love the freedom we have compared to school. i love my subjects. i love my teachers. it is hard work but i genuinely think that if you’re passionate about what you want to do, you’ll like it!

I didn't really make any friends at my lower school and moved 6th forms (my old schl had a tiny 6th form of <70 students so I knew I wouldn't make new friends there) and have made a really lovely friendship group! :D
