[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does class rank figure in? Any advantage to a tiny graduating class over a huge one? [/quote] Not so much since a lot of schools don't rank anymore. A tiny graduating class may be a negative because it will be harder to be in the top 10%. If it's a class of 50 only 5 kids will be in the top 10%, whereas in a class of 500 there are 50 kids in the top 10%. Our public school doesn't rank but does provide a GPA grid that shows what percent of the class is in certain ranges. So I think it says something like 8% are in the 3.9-4.0 range, x% are in the 3.8-3.9 range, etc. I suspect colleges do look at that just so see how a student stacks up relative to the school overall.[/quote]
