For applications where it asks you to list your GPA, can you put your class rank in parenthesis.
I.E 3.5 (Top 10%)

Since some schools have grade deflation/inflation, I don’t see how they can compare GPAs. Someone can go to a school where a 3.9 is the top 10% of their class while somewhere can go somewhere where a 3.9 is the top 1% of their class due to grade deflation/inflation.
