<p>I wouldnt call you a noob for asking the questions but i will call you a noob (whatever that is ) for not googling this...below are the very first searches that came up...NOOB!</p>
<p>Valedictorian is an academic title typically conferred upon the highest ranked student within the graduating class of an educational institution</p>
<p>Salutatorian: the second highest ranking graduate</p>

What</a> is a "valedictorian"? (Education: High School )</p>
<p>To answer your other question, class rank is usually determined by GPA, though whether that's weighted or not, I couldn't tell you</p>
<p>Usually determined by class rank, but more traditionally, they are the student speech givers at graduation. My school technically doesn't have these two titles since the speakers are chosen separately, but we still use these terms haha.</p>
