MTV's new docu-series, If You Really Knew Me goes inside high schools across the country to discover what can happen when students peel back their public personas, break out of their cliques and show their peers who they really are. Each episode visits a different school, following five students as they tear down the walls that divide them through a transformative one-day program, "Challenge Day".
