After than, we can use object forms or subject forms .

1. John is younger than me. (Informal style)

2. John is younger than I. (Formal style)

Which of the above sentences should we use in an examination especially for children?

Thanks for your help.

You can split the difference and still use correct grammar: "John is younger than I am."

You could also use: "I am older than John."
