<p>As an in state student, your chances would be fair. Out of state though? Expect a fight on your hands. Admissions officers like to see a higher class ranking, especially in the absence of a national level accomplishment. When you consider the fact that two thirds of the valedictorians who applied were turned away, a clearer view of your chances appears.</p>

<p>Feel free to talk to one of the admissions officers. They’re open to discussing your chances, and will spare no frankness when evaluating what you have.</p>

<p>I disagree - top 10% is not going to hurt at all. Yes, most valedictorians are rejected, but many, many non-valedictorians are also accepted. Once you’re around the top 10%, it comes down to GPA, SAT/ACT, EC’s, essays, and recs. Those other 5 components are much more important than simply a higher rank.</p>
