[quote=Anonymous]This exact same thing happened to me in high school. I was top of the class until sophomore year, and then a student transferred from another school. She missed the mandatory unweighted 9th grade health class, so she pulled ahead of everyone else. She ended up graduating #1, despite only attending a little over 2 years at the high school. My school stopped doing valedictorians before I graduated, thankfully. We had the class president make a speech instead of the valedictorian, because it was so. darn. competitive. People pulled all sorts of stupid tricks, getting "religious exemptions" for non weighted classes, taking things at the university in town instead of on campus so you'd get extra GPA points, taking classes as pass/fail instead of getting a grade, etc. It was a game.[/quote]
