<p>Class Rank: </p>
<p>This is very strange but I’ll explain best I can.</p>
<p>Exact rank is not disclosed.
Basically my GPA is 4.04 on my school’s very weird system.
The highest GPA in my grade is 4.52.
There are 24 people who have GPA’s between 3.9 and 4.52.
There are 115 students in the class.
I hope that makes sense.</p>
