* InformedAttractiveness: Characters mention his attractiveness constantly. Even [[OnlySaneMan Dr. Jamie Ryan]] is impressed by his good looks. Given that the cast is full of attractive characters, the thing that distinguishes him from his peers is how much more mature he looks. This is aided by DawsonCasting -- Paxton's actor Darren Barent is significantly older than the rest of the "high school" cast and is in fact only two years younger than Richa Moorjani, the actress for Kamala, Devi's adult, working cousin. He was the only cast member to be in his 30s by the time the show wrapped filming, with the rest of the cast only being in their early to mid 20s.

Added DiffLines:
* BrokenAce: Initially comes across as an overly perfect ClassPrincess, but she also has secret insecurities because she used to have an eating disorder, and had to leave her old school because of this. She's also not BookSmart like Ben and Devi, and during her relationship with Ben, she realizes that they don't have much in common, and that Ben still likes Devi more.
* ClassPrincess: She's pretty, popular with the other students, athletic, witty, and always friendly to everyone.

Added DiffLines:
* DudeMagnet: For a supposedly unpopular girl, she attracts many guys. Paxton, Ben, Des, and Ethan fall for her, and all of them are also handsome and popular guys (except for Ben, who is considered a "loser", but he's a ChickMagnet too).
Added DiffLines:
* ChickMagnet: Exaggerated. In most of his scenes, there is usually some random female character who is attracted to him, even strangers, background characters, or older women.

* BookSmart: She's ambitious, a very good student, and graduates valedictorian at the end of the show.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Easily gets jealous when Ben is hanging out with or dating other girls, like Aneesa or Margot. She also acts like this towards Paxton at times, like when she thinks he's still attracted to Haley in season 3.

* ItsAllAboutMe[=/=]NeverMyFault: For a while, she gets so wrapped up in her own problems that she dismisses the idea that other people, like her best friends, have some big ones of their own too. When her best friends approach her, insisting they needed to talk, she coldly says whatever problems they have, hers "are always bigger" before ditching them.

Added DiffLines:
* KarmicButtMonkey: While Devi is selfish and dishonest, she gets a lot of flak. She's called "crazy Devi" by her peers, she gets suspended for mishandling a moment of jealousy, and Paxton's friends treat her pretty invisibly.

* CoolLoser: She's unpopular in school, but also very pretty (a little kid even says she looks like Princess Jasmine in Season 1) and definitely one of their brainiest students (academically, at least). This is pretty much acknowledged in Season 3, when Devi dates Des and finds out that outside Sherman Oaks, Devi is seen as cool.
Deleted line(s) 43 (click to see context) :
* LoserProtagonist: She's nerdy and unpopular. She shows hints of CoolLoser, though, as she's pretty, smart and is attractive enough for [[spoiler:Paxton]] to be fully on board for having sex with her.
