Abstract

Academics is a huge repository of research avenue. Students tend to behave and adapt to the classroom based on their peer influences. Peers help in the increase of communication skills. Research shows group study is more effective than individual study. Group formation is influenced by several factors, like friends, demographic and linguistically similar. Toppers are more considerate but again based on comfort level friends are chosen. In this paper we analyze the change in preferences of group mates, and inferences are drawn over their reconciliations.
