[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents on DCUM often fail to understand that class rank is the most important criteria. Grades and rigor obviously determine that, but can’t look at grades in isolation because of grade inflation. Second most important is quality of extracurriculars. Test scores matter, but much less than the other two.[/quote] Bullshit. The overwhelming majority of high schools don't even rank. [/quote] Every school that provides grades, ranks. It’s just a question of whether the high school itself does the arithmetic. If 10 students apply from one high school to the same college, it’s trivially easy for the college to put them in order from highest GPA to lowest. [/quote] [/quote]
