If that's the case...no wonder why I wasn't into it.

It did seem like a real suspicously high number of honor roll members were all into it.
Just using observation here, ritalin or aderol is used to by children and adults who have ADD to help calm them and help them concentrate. When used by someone who does not have ADD or ADHD, the drug keeps them awake but it also helps with concentration. In college, a lot of people I know (it is very widely used, at least at the college I went to) used it to write papers or study, cause it would keep them up and help them focus.

That is just the type of abuse of ritalin and aderol that I observed at college. I am sure in high school the kids who abused it used it for a lot of different reasons, one of them probably to seem "cool".
