Keep that in mind, they might seem like next to reality but the fact that they are movies, they were thought of and planned. College life is basically exaggerated during portrayals at movies, why is that? Do the directors really intend to brain wash all high school graduates, that you would be better off without college if your a nerd because you'll just be bullied? Or do they want to portray to young folks that you should always socialize with the popular ones just so you can be among them? The truth about college movies is that it is planned to be exaggerated, to be fun, to be "just too good to be true", for the main purpose of earning a much bigger revenue and increase the sales of a movie. Because of the wild clips in the movie, it stimulates interest among young folks what college life could be. The ones that loves college life to be exactly what they want it to be, ALL FUN NO STUDY, are the producers. What exactly is the life of a college student? Well, the whole point of having a college life is not all partly to have fun. If you have been to college, it is not all that fun having all the troubles of assignments and deadlines to catch, the major exams that you still don't understand even the day before. Unless your extra smart and witty, you can't fool around showing your failing marks to everyone, it would be embarrassing. College is not a simple task that you can easily say "No, i don't want to go", it is way more serious. It is basically what changes you to becoming who you really want to be. In college life, you will make the most important choice of your life perhaps in choosing the career you want for life. And even though studying is mostly the part of a college student, there can be some fun with it too. Yes, there are some parties. But No, there will be no strippers like in the movies. All in all, having friends with you during college life is the best thing you will cherish. The laugh you had with your friends and the first drinking session you had with them, the memories will just stock up even though you didn't intend them to be. Those friends you have are never borne out of movies, they are made several years in real life. College Movies, are never true.

I certainly agree to some point where in college life portrayals in movie do reflect negativity for the movie goers. However, I interpreted it as a warning of some kind for those freshmen out there to watch out this kind of situations in campus. I think in real life those seen in movies, portraying college life situations, may in a way realistic in nature, to some percentage of students, due to some statistics that of the members of the graduating class from for the year 2000 who had gone on to higher education, nearly two-thirds of the class had not earned a college diploma seven years after they had begun collegiate studies. (From the excerpts of http://www.openeducation.net/2008/11/20/college-graduation-rates-statistics-tell-a-sad-tale/) College life is a stage for preparation for the real world, which means that whatever actions or life you portray in that level or stage it will somehow reflect what you become in the near future.
