It isn't nearly as cliquey as movies. Sure, there are cliques, but a lot of people have a wide variety of friends. As for popularity, it's all overrated. The "popular" kids are no better than regular ones. Just be friendly, don't judge others openly, make yourself seem easygoing and laid back and people will like you for sure. Dont worry about being "popular". Good luck!

Not even close. High school doesn't have all those cliques like in movies. There is no "popular group". And I seriously mean that when i say there isn't a popular group. If you were to ask me to name one popular person at my school, I couldn't do it. Yeah sure, people are separated, but not as much as in movies. At least at my school, people are more separated by race. Not saying that people of different races aren't friends or don't speak to each other. But more of their closer friends are usually people of their same race.

Im going to be a freshman in a month..and I can already tell you high school is nothing like it is on tv. Some Movies..exaggerate..and others make it seem like a big musical hahaha! But just go and be yourself..introduce yourself to a lot of people and you'll do great :)

Just be a positive friendly person. Smile and always look nice
