It'd be interesting how they turn out in High school.
Claudia- I reckon she'd do quite well. Granted, Freshman would be a b*tch for her though. The fear of being kept back a year will make her do enough. Not sure which clan she'll fall into though. Got a feeling the art snobs will reject her for being too happy.. So clanless for now. Potential sl*t. Will attract loser boyfriends.
Stacey- I'm not sure wherever she'll ditch her mates for the IN crowd or become popular in her own right or stick with the bsc..clanless for now. Will attract loser boyfriends. Potential queen B.
Mary anne- super b*tch? Potential to fade into background. Will be first to lose virginity.
Kristy, I think along side mal would be the biggest shock. Kristy would be a cheerleader. I don't know why I think that but i've got a feeling she will.
Mal- Join girls basketball team.
Jessi-?
Dawn- Stoner? Shave head- the less she has to use hair products the better for the universe? I dunno.
Abby- ?

Kristy - total jock. Girls softball team, volleyball team, etc. Mary Anne - still Kristy's best friend. Not really involved in much, still shadowing Kristy. Stacey - cheerleader, popular girl. Ditches BSC (including Claudia. She might maintain a fake-friendship with Claud, but def not the other girls). Claudia - I think she'd be a loner, not really fitting in with other kids. Dawn - her own group, she wouldn't be a nerd, but not popular, either. Abby - playing sports Jessi - still bff with Mal, still doing ballet. Mallory - quiet, basically only friends with Jessi. Involved with newspaper.

Lol! We make Stacey seem like a cold hearted b*tch. Would Stacey really ditch her mates especially after what happened the last time? I can see her becoming popular but not as a cheerleader more as a style icon.
I kind of agree about Claudia being a sort of loner and not have an exclusive group of friends. She does have the potential to be popular but she's just not stereotypically cold like most popular girls in . I can see her floating from group to group.
Mallory has about as much chance of being popular as George Bush becoming a member of mensa. It's the name 'Mallory', she was destined for dork/geekdom. The nearest to popularity Mal will come is becoming the basketball team's mascot. And that is because she'd have to because she's in danger failing Gym.
Kristy, I maintain will be a cheerleader. She will also shorten her name to Kris or go back to calling herself kristen and have a cute bob.

Claudia will drop out. She won't make it past junior year.
Kristy and Abby won't change much. They'll be almost exactly how they are in the canon - athletic, bossy, and a little immature.
Stacey also won't change much. I don't see her becoming a snobby popular girl. I think her social ranking will remain much as it is in the canon, sort of mid-level popular. She'll always be kind of stuck up, but she's too much of a math geek to ever be completely embraced by the in-crowd.
Mary Anne will be a wallflower. She'll join the yearbook and date the same boy throughout high school.
Dawn will continue to not be an individual and do whatever Sunny's doing in high school.
Mallory will attempt to attain popularity by sleeping with the basketball team. It won't work.
Jessi will still be black.

Jessi will still be black. But how do you know? People can change.

True. She could develop vitiligo like Michael Jackson.

I think Kristy would be one of those kids who's involved in everything and everyone knows but they don't like her all that much. She seems like she already gets on people's nerves.
I see Jessi becoming slightly more popular and kind of leaving Mallory behind.
Mallory would discover Dungeons and Dragons.

Stacey would totally be in the popular crowd, and I think it would make her drift from Claudia a bit. Mary Anne would be one of those people that everyone basically likes, but no one really pays any attention to.

Kristy would have a hard time growing up and letting go of the bsc.

I think it's so weird how lots of fanfics depict the entire BSC as social drinkers/drug users in high school -- when I was in high school, only, like, the degenerates partied very often. The rest of us drank so infrequently that, like, a Smirnoff Ice would knock us off our faces.

No one I knew really drank in high school. I also like how one of them always ends up pregnant, and one of them ends up being a lesbian in fanfics. Heck, sometimes we get two lesbians, as the members in question realize their undying love for each other.

True. She could develop vitiligo like Michael Jackson. Jessi would freak and go through an identity crisis.

Social/binge drinking is extremely common for teens here, more so now than when I was in high school (and it wasn't really THAT long ago... was it?) so I don't see it as particularly unrealistic. Alcohol seems slightly more taboo in the US.
For the record, it seemed INSANE to me that no one in Sweet Valley ever touched alcohol. Not a bad thing, by any stretch, but not an accurate reflection of high school kids in my experience.

Kristy would have a hard time growing up and letting go of the bsc. I can totally see Kristy trying her hardest to keep the club together, even as everybody is going their seperate ways. Stacey would be more popular than Claudia, but I don't think she'd ever reach the ranks of "Most Popular." Actually, I can see Claudia slipping in the ranks quite a bit, hanging out with Ashley Wyeth a lot, and being known mostly as "that weird artsy girl." Mallory has the potential to become either a drama-geek or a band-geek. Not that she has any particular talent in acting or playing instruments, but she's got that weird, drama-geek personality. Jessi would definitely be more popular than her and she'd feel guilty for leaving Mal behind. I think Dawn would just kind of drift from group to group. People would think she was a little odd, but they'd vaguely like her and they'd put up with her.
