A very small part of people who I call friends are people, who I actually care about. I’m just forced to communicate with others to get important info I need for school.

Well, people you HAVE to see for professional reasons aren’t your friends, and you shouldn’t really care what they think about your hobbies or interests.

At school, it’s different, than at work, as children/teens (including me) are generally less mature, which means most of them don’t help you or inform you unless they benefit from it. TLDR: I make people think they are my friends because I’m forced to.

Okay, I understand that, and that’s fine, everyone has people like that in their lives at some point.

But if you KNOW they aren’t really your friends, why would you complain that they don’t act like they are?

You can just ignore the first part of my advice (about not spending time with them) because it doesn’t apply to this situation, but you should probably still try and find people who you can actually be friends with based on your hobbies and interests.
