Great Quiz. Easily could be a sequel. Like all of Freddie Prinze Jr.'s career.

@vogz: Billy Madison may not have revolved around "being in" high school, but it certainly "centered around" high school, since Billy needed to graduate high school in order to take over his dad's business. Seems like a perfect fit given the criteria.

God bless John Hughes. I can't wait for the sequel - I'd love to see some more older movies like one starring Sidney Poitier, one starring Maggie Smith, and one starring Robert Donat.

It really isn't a high school quiz without High School High and Encino Man (lol).

Matthew McConaughey would have been a better clue for "Dazed and Confused"...best line "Best thing about high school chicks, I get older but they stay the same age!"

I must agree with Lachlan. High School Musical seems like a glaring omission, and as much as I prefer the latter, Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen could just as easily fit for Lohan's Mean Girls. At most they're a year apart.

Even though it sucked, what about The Faculty?? It's strictly high school. And, as mentioned already....HIGH SCHOOL High, Encino Man, Can't Hardly Wait, etc. High School Musicals blow, they shouldn't be on here. Consider them cartoons

Porky's "Hello, Mike Hunt? Has anyone seen Mike Hunt?". definitely needed for the sequel.

For everybody complaining about recent ones, you need to watch the real omission "Just One of the Guys".

I'm going to have to agree with those who already said this: High School Musical is a MUST, even if you didn't like it, it has topped several lists and it's already a trilogy, all about high school! Also, Rushmore was filmed at my high school! Go St. John's!

Everyone seems to be overlooking the fact that the quiz title at the top of the page includes the phrase "(part 1)". Obviously there are plenty of good answers that fit the category, they're probably saving the rest for part 2.

@rabbit: i had the same thought! And sporcle admins, Teen Wolf was released in 1985 as well, so it's technically correct: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090142/

@Kamara- they decided not to put it on hoping that by the time part 2 will come out there will be 15 high school musicals to be on the quiz. Can't wait till part 2:)

Jumping on board the Teen Wolf bandwagon which is a better fit than BTTF. Also putting Kirsten Dunst in there is evil given that only a year later she did 'Get Over It' & 'Crazy/Beautiful'!
