No matter what school you go to‚ there will always be cliques—the social hierarchy of the entire student body. The movie Mean Girls‚ or really any teen high school-based movie‚ depicts the lives of teenagers and how everyone fits into a certain group. However‚ these movies tend to be hyperbolic‚ and not everyone necessarily meets the standards to be in a group. For example‚ the cheerleaders and jocks are always at the top.
