Do you have any tips on how to survive high school?
I'm going to high school next year.
I need advice on clique, fashion, the drugs (i'm not a druggie, just how to bypass them), academics, how to organize school life and home life, dating.
Anything you know about high school would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

-hang out with your friends, dont try and be popular
-fashion wise wear clothes that suit you and fit you.
-Uh well...don't hang out with people who do drugs
-Try to stay on top of things

STUDY STUDY STUDY! I failed to recognize on that one, I thought that I was going to get 2nd chances like back in middle school. I ended up failing 9th grade and became a "freshmore". I'm now homeschooled because of how behind in credits I became and am now suppost to be a Junior but i'm still in the same situation with credits.
With drugs, just say no easy. You can be friends with people that do it; some of my best friends experimented with it freshman year. I never did try, but I made sure that if I was going to hang out with them that it wasn't there.
For fashion, cliques, just be yourself and you'll find your own group that fits your own style. The very first day I actually had a girl walk up just because something was on my binder and we started talking about it and over the semester we became best friends and still are. :) Simple things like that.
Surviving is easy, but those first few days can be scary.

Wish I could help but i'm in the exact same situaton. I'll be in high school next year too. All I know is prepare to wake up at least a good 2-3 hours earlier.

I'm a freshman (9th grade) and its fun! Stay away from drugs and smoking. Wear what you like and dont care about what anyone thinks. I'm in most honors and I have a boyfriend so I make for both. But, school always come first. Oh, and make tons and tons of new friends!

Ah, i had the same problem last year, when i was in the 8th grade, about to go to 9th. Just don't worry, high school doesn't seem as bad as you think. I don't know about the school you're gonna go to, but my high school isn't like how they portray it on TV and movies. Just be yourself and good luck! :)

stand up for yourself! the only thing to worry about high school is bullying, bullies only pick on someone who doesnt fight back, so if they swear at you, swear back, dont let them walk on you for an instant. do that and you will be ok

It's like prison kid, either kick someone's ***, or become someone's *****, they all love a fresh fish. Ask your dad.
