<p>as ive been looking at college websites ive seen that one of the factrs among sat scores and gpa is class ranking. what does that mean?
does it mean ur rank among other kids in your class, like what top percent your in? if so how do you find out where you rank because i have never seen my school post our ranking or anything like that.
or, does it mean somethign totally different?</p>
<p>yes it means among other kids in your class, try asking your guidance counselor, some schools don't provide class rank because in many highly competitive schools they believe it hurts their students in college admission (for example, at some schools, a student may rank in the bottom 50% of the class yet still be extremely strong academically, even though the ranking would not seem to reflect this)</p>
