My rank went DOWN with a 6.0!

Applying to College
1

<p>Last semster I received all A’s in all AP classes (6.0) yet my rank dropped from 21/1229 to 24/1221!</p>

<p>I guess transfer students messed things up, since your class size changed from 1229 to 1221.</p>

<p>I think what happened is I took AP Govt and AP Econ (both graqduation requirements) which last all semeter but only count once toward our GPA (worth .5 credits on a block system). Other kids take one or both this semeste and took an AP class which counted twice in the GPA calcuations.</p>

<p>I know it’s small in the scheme of things, but it sucks now</p>

<p>Come on. You are still top 2% of your class.</p>

5

<p>Your school has an odd grading scale.</p>

<p>Wolfpiper, that’s just not right. Have you recalculated your GPA?</p>

<p>…WHO CARES</p>

<p>rank means virtually nothing in the scheme of things, so really, it doesn’t matter in the slightest.</p>
