I remember hearing somewhere that Apple dropped support (I don't know what this means) for Windows 7 in Bootcamp. But I'd go with Windows 10 anyway because it's faster.

The dropped support means there would be no more driver updates for Windows 7, So it looks like I will be going to Windows 10.

I am needing to put Windows on my Macbook for my Operating Systems class, and I was wondering which version would run more efficiently, 7 or 10.

With Bootcamp, both should.  I have Win 7, haven't had the time to upgrade or install Win 10 yet.
