Answer: As the other comment says, preps are usually a bigger group of well-known boys and girls. At both of my high schools (my family moved) they were mostly from upper-middle-class and wealthy families. Most were cheerleaders, members of sports teams, and/or heavily involved in extracurricular activities. Basically the Hollywood of the school.

Answer: Not necessarily. "Preps" usually consist of a huge group of both boys and girls (at least in my high school expierence!). The plastics were just three really mean girls that thought they were above all other cliques.
