Class Rank

Applying to College
1

<p>My high school uses unweighted class rank. Currently I am ranked 105 out of 806, but I take more rigorous classes than most people. I want to apply to Drexel’s BA/BS/MD Program, but the entry requirement is to be in the top 10% of graduating class. How do I resolve this issue? Will Drexel understand that my class rank is not a true class rank?</p>

<p>Also, will other colleges understand this as well?</p>

<p>Your rank is no less ‘true’ than most.</p>

<p>BS/MD programs take the top of the top. They will look for you to have gotten top grades in all of your school’s hardest classes.</p>

<p>Class ranks vary widely by school. As Redroses said, your class rank is no less true than anyone else’s. You are expected to do well in difficult classes.</p>
