Were you ever the only freshman in one of your classes?

Question

Did you talk to the upperclassmen and befriend them, just mind your own business, or get mean looks/comments from them? I'm gonna be the only freshmen in one of my classes and i dont know what to expect. Here's more details from my other question:

Answer 1

no, thank god. but if i was then i would stay quiet and occasionally talk to the people i knew

Answer 2

Im a sophmore this year.

but last year I took an advance spanish class because Im from Mexico. So for most of the year I was the only freshmen in the class (another freshmen came towards the end of the year). Mostly they were jealous cause my spanish was WAY better than all of theirs'. I ended up being good friends with some of them.

Dont worry. you'll be fine

Answer 3

Yes.  I talked to the upperclassmen and befriended them and got mean comments from them.

Answer 4

Honestly, no one notices your there : l

Answer 5

I am a year ahead in math, and my freshman math class only had two other freshman. The rest were all sophomores.

Last year (my junior year) I was the only junior in a class of seniors.

Most people don't even notice that you are a grade younger. It's not really a big deal in high school.

Answer 6

yeh. like in my math class i am almost like the only freshman. but they're cool though and not like what people say they are. first baby!!!

Answer 7

yes, and I became friends with the the guys I sat by, and ended up making out with one of them... at one point.

Answer 8

Well, when I was a freshman I took Trig/Alg. 2 and all my friends were in Algebra 1 or Geometry. There were actually 2 other freshmen in my class, but I talked mostly to the upper classmen, they are quite nice.

This year I have a 0 period pre calc, and there is one other sophomore in my class and he wasn't there the first two weeks, but it was fine, I'm not really intimidated by people who were born 9 months before me.

Answer 9

yes. i had journalism. i befriended everyone, but i sat with a bunch of senior girls. which was fun, but sucked b.c they graduated. :[

but it's a good thing for them. anyways, it depends on each person, the atmosphere, etc. my school is pretty good b.c there's not too much pressure to fit in so we all be ourselves....well some of us lol. :]
