How big are cliques on average?

Size of Cliques

It is a popularity contest. Maybe if someones "popular" and someone is a "nerd" or a "dork" that would be known as a clique. They can also change in size depending on a school. 2,000 kids with 4 grade levels can have easily 30 cliques of about 20- 100 kids. Though it is not as if they always hang out and know everyone in their clique.

Answer

It depends upon whether you are discussing youth or adults. Some might argue that cliques are largely a youth issue; however, in adult society cliques continue to exists referred to something different such as social status, etc. Maybe, it just depends on how important we make them.
