it isnt unlikely! its true to real life and, if poppy arrived the weekend after a holiday had just ended, itd explain why everyone else is there + knows what theyre doing subject wise but poppy doesnt. i would assume poppy arrived on sunday and she was meant to start her classes on monday but failed to do so, so spent most of sunday deciding what to do by asking the other students.
