<p>What is your rank?</p>

5

<p>my school doesnt rank</p>

6

<p>Do they report what decile you're in? My HS doesn't rank either, but they will say that you're in the top decile, and if you request it they can write your numerical rank in their recommendation</p>

7

<p>nope, there's no form of ranking at all. reason being it's a very competitive school. if i really really wanted to i might be able to get my counselor to calculate it, but i doubt it would be in my favor anyway. and i think if the school doesn't report it the colleges don't need to take it, so...</p>

<p>ONLY SEND IN YOUR ACT, your ACT is MUCH better than SAT and is in range for Pomona.However, your ECs and grades are still below most Claremont average.</p>

<p>Pomona, Harvey Mudd, CMC: Reach</p>

<p>Pitzer: Match </p>

<p>LMU: Safer match</p>

<p>USD, Chapman: Safety</p>

<p>Agree, Pomona and CMC require a higher GPA, and look at class rank but the ACT score is very good. If you have a great 1st semester it can make a difference. You would have a good chance at Pitzer and Scripps. Good luck!</p>
