40% HS nationally eliminate class rank?!

<p>Our school district does not rank, and hasn’t for decades—I know they didn’t when I graduated back when the dinosaurs roamed the earth. I don’t know how they could–we have honors, AP, and IB classes. Choral/band programs range from beginning programs to audition only award winners…which should be weighted. I think adcoms have a good idea of what happens at schools in their areas, but the specifics may be a little vague.</p>

<p>I know when D needed a rank estimate for an outside scholarship, her GC was happy to provide it, and back it up in writing if needed.</p>
