Plans are not the same. Oracle 11.2 is doing direct reads, Oracle 12.2 is not.  Do you have big table caching turned on? If you do have big table caching turned on, turn it off and see if you're getting direct reads. Also, check PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET and make it the same on both versions.  Oracle 12.2 changed the method for deciding when to do direct reads:

https://fritshoogland.wordpress.com/2017/09/08/the-full-table-scan-direct-path-read-decision-for-version-12-2/

For the record, I am not advising you to change _small_table_threshold. You shouldn't be messing with the "underscore" parameters, unless advised by Oracle Support.

Regards
