A disease that affects a wide number of sophomores. Most common causes include their first Honors and AP classes, often including AP Biology and/or AP World History. Symptoms include increased complaining about arbitrary things like B's in English Honors, sleeping at 2 AM, poorer study habits, and increased social awareness--including the fact they "may be single for the rest of their life." It is not life-threatening and pales in comparison to Senioritis; however, people experiencing sophomoritis may be prone to extreme mood swings and bitchiness. Sophomoritis is often the precursor to the more serious Junioritis.
Sophomore: Dude. I have a C+ in AP World History right now. I think I'm going to get a 3.5.

Senior: Calm down. Sophomoritis is nothing; I'm literally failing all my classes and I might get rescinded from college.

Get the Sophomoritis mug.
Someone who thinks they are so much better than freshman just because they are 7 months older. They're the reason why freshman have bullying problems. They represent absolutely no authority at all and when asked why they hate freshman they give the stupidest answer, like, "They're annoying"
Freshman graduating: We're not freshman anymore! Yes! Now we can make fun of all the little freshman in 3 months!
Sophomore graduating (By this point they understand): Why?
Freshman graduating: Because they are freshman! Duh!

A high school sophomore who is often led to be consumed by teenage drama, failing classes, and quite frankly not giving a damn. At this point in their high school career, people affected by Sophomoritis usually look down upon Freshman, and have let go of their feeling of being the underdog. More cocky than Freshman, but often leading to Junioritis during the following year.
"Joe asked Kristina out, and Mike says he's failing three of his classes. I'm not sure if I can stand all these freshman this year, and I really don't care anymore. It's Sophomoritis, and I don't want to hear any more of this!"

relating to a person who is overconfident with his or her knowledge despite being uninformed
Even humour that is puerile or sophomoric requires craft and a nuanced intelligence to get it right.

Get the Sophomoric mug.
One who thinks just because they're a year older than freshman, that means they're "the shit". Generally just as whiney and immature as a freshman.
Sophomore Lisa: Hey guys, I'm a sophomore now! Aren't these new freshman like, TOTALLY annoying!?

Seniors James & Miranda: Uh... We'll be over here...

A person who has survived the worst year of high school freshmen year and now moved up in ranks. sophomores are usually more intelligent and mature than their freshmen peers they also have more confidence and are more adjusted to their school positions. They also get another level of work from their teachers and if not popular or well-known would usually stay out of the way of Juniors and Seniors unless they are directly provoked or picked on. Sophomores know the routine and unless they are new students or antisocial will remain calm and try to be 'cool' they are also more bigger and tougher than freshmen and can get away with a lot more, Their higher maturity from lower grades possibly explain why they dislike or outright hate freshmen so much. But to Seniors they are just big freshmen.
Sophomores are great they are the oil that keep the school running and keep the freshmen in check.
