^ Age old discussion Mitch. Students taking challenging classes would rather use weighted GPA, others would not.

As far as importance of class ranking, look at the Common Data Set of the colleges in which you are interested, section C7. It will show the ranking of class rank and other admission factors. At a school like U Texas, class rank is king. At others like WVU, it is not considered at all.
