[b]You can't rank what you can't see. Unless a critical mass of students (over 50%?) apply to all of the state schools, they will be left with incomplete information to ascerta[/b]in actual rank / rank range.[/quote]

But the readers are already able to rank via the class profile send by every public high school counselor.  It gives all the necessar;y demographics, including how many are taking what AP courses to figure it out. That's what schools are doing right now even if they claim they don't rank (but there is a list on computer that the college counselor can see - from time to time it gets accidentally released and then there is a scurry).  Most schools will tell you they don't rank because of the added stress but it's a game between the high school and the college.  That's why class profiles are sent with each transcript[/quote]

The original post stated that the school profile no longer includes GPA ranges.[/quote]
