Bad rank?

The thing that I am most worried about, by far on my resume is the fact that I am ranked number 12 in my class; my class is also very small, with only 53 students, but it is also ranked number 4 in AZ and is 27th in the country. How bad does it look when applying for colleges?

Your guidance counselor will have a chance to put your rank into context, and regional admissions officers will be able to do so also, since your school is so highly ranked.

Also, many colleges no longer consider rank.

Assuming your unweighted GPA is good, I wouldn’t worry.

All classes are honors or AP, and my unweighted GPA is about 3.89. I am pretty worried despite this

Class rank is usually not a factor, or a very minor factor, in college admissions compared to GPA, course rigor, and your school info.

your gpa is .11 short of a 4.0?? why and how are you worried?
