How has your class rank changed throughout High School?

<p>From the very first time you saw it, which for me was after my first semester as a freshman, up until now?</p>

<p>Mine was 11/~400 until the end of last semester when I moved up to 9/400. I have a good feeling that it’ll move up a couple of places when this semester is over also because I’ve been doing pretty good and two people, above me, are going to the NCSSM. :slight_smile:
So, it’s been pretty idle, but I really want it to move upp. I’m only getting done with my sophomore year so I have plenty of timee.</p>

<p>How about you guyss?</p>

2

<p>16/640 then 19/620 and now 17/580</p>

<p>:/</p>

3

<p>1/682 –> 1/642 –> 1/621</p>

4

<p>1/340—11/350—5/350 hopefully it’ll be higher after this year.</p>

5

<p>132/415…yea it looks like i dont belong on CC lol</p>

6

<p>I know I’m top 20 out of 400 or so but Its abnormal to get lower than a A/B average because parents are kinda crazy in the district haha. Then again my school ties people for ranking. I know someone who had a 3.4 and got 15th along with two other people. I think a lot might do this just because you tie places so this number isn’t really accurate.</p>

7

<p>4/243 -> 4/221 -> 4/something less than 221</p>

<p>Not much mobility.</p>

8

<p>500/500 --------> 500/500</p>

<p>wutwut</p>

9

<p>lulz puggly.</p>

<p>not going by uc/csu gpa or weighted or calgrant but by Total gpa…
60/459 > 38/440 > 28/371</p>

10

<p>2/150 -> 3/140. Fail. I just get screwed cuz I take band cuz I love it and he takes easy college business classes that are weighted more</p>

11

<p>12/810 –> 5/810 –> 6/810 (Finished) – @Swimfreak001, I hear you about the band classes!</p>

12

<p>11/243 -> 10/221 -> probably 10/something less than 221</p>

13

<p>Coming from a HS that doesn’t rank, this is all unfamiliar to me. Where do you guys “see” it? On your report cards, like with your GPA?</p>

14

<p>I have to go to my guidance counselor to get my rank. ^^ I Hope 2 and 3 aren’t very different in college admissions eyes</p>

15

<p>How is rank calculated? Are difficulty of classes taken into account? Is it weighted or unweighted grades?</p>

16

<p>Rank doesn’t matter that much sometimes. If you are in California just make sure you stay within the top 3% of your class, that way you have guaranteed admittance to any UC starting from UCSB.
Just maintain your grades and do a lot of volunteer work</p>

17

<p>11/322 -> 7/373</p>

<p>I still have my junior and senior year to go</p>

18

<p>

</p>

<p>Amen brother. i’m only ~90-100/700 :/</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>It varies by school, but usually it’s by weighted GPA.</p>

19

<p>1/~870 –> 7/xxx? –> 1/xxx? –> 1/732</p>

<p>What’s weird is that I’m pretty sure more people have been moving into my district than moving out, offsetting the number of dropouts…so I guess my school just has a really high dropout rate? o.O</p>

20

<p>My school calculates rank solely by unweighted GPA. However, they calculate valedictorian by 60% GPA, 20% ACT, 20% AP/Honors courses</p>
