Well, are you in a class of two? Your class rank wouldn’t be that bad in that case. However, because I am going to assume that you’re not, your rank will certainly be a huge detriment. Even so, a bad class rank will not make your chances totally impossible, just nearly impossible. With phenomenal scores, a major hook, and wonderful essays, even a top 50% can be overcome (but it doesn’t happen often).
