<p>No problem. I hope you find the advice helpful and good luck with all the apps. </p>
<p>As for class rank, my school only tells rank in deciles (top 10, top 20, etc.) and this past year the top 10 decile rank has been 3.96 GPA - 4.0 GPA. I doubt it will change. But the good thing is that my school doesn’t weigh GPAs for class rank, so someone who has gotten a 4.0 can still be really dumb ( ie never taken an honors or ap course ever) That being said, there are a lot of people who are smarter than I am at my school and have higher SAT and GPAs with more rigorous courses, but most are almost carbon copies of each other. (literally, its predictable. Probably 50 or so Juniors our of the 400+ in my class year take APLAC, RUSH, AP Calc BC, AP Chem, Span 4H and an art class). </p>
<p>Honestly, I think that the class rank will probably be the one thing that brings me down on my app. Ehh life goes on. </p>
<p>yeah my SAT 2 chem is bad. hopefully if physics and ush are good then i can just not submit chem. If I have to take any subject test again, I think it would probably be phys or ush just because i like those subjects so much more and the one t/f/causation section really annoys me. </p>
<p>Thanks
GL to you to! (especially with getting the research position you want!)</p>
