Some wizard are nearly 12 when they start, so will be 18 in their final year.
Also, Durmstrang might be different, taking kids earlier or keeping them later. Who knows.

Maybe he repeated a year because he was always off doing Quidditch

I don't know that J.K. ever said that other wizard schools had a 7-year system.. It may just be Hogwarts. That would be a good thing to look up though!
It could also be what shaeromani said, that his Quidditch schedule put him behind in school. | |

Wizrads start their first year when they're 11-12
2nd year: 12-13
3rd year: 13-14
4th year: 14-15
5th year: 15-16
6th year: 16-17
7th year: 17-18
Or must like Dainsie said, Durmstrang might be different.

Either Dumstrang is different to Hogwarts, Krum has his birthday early in the school year or maybe Krum was held back a year.

Maybe Durmstrang is different. Or maybe Krum started school when he was 12. That actually is a pretty good point!! | |

I'd say he started at Durmstrang when he was 12. Hermione turned 12 shortly after her first term started, so she'd be 18 for the biggest part of her senior year.

^^Agreed.
Also Durmstrang might have different age limits?
Or maybe Krum started later or had to take a year off because of quidditch?

Yes your 17 and 18 in the 7th year. But does that mean that hermione is older than ron? Because it states in POA that hermiones birthday is in september, and Rons is on march 1st. So she's messing around with a toy boy after hogwarts? Lol.
