<p>I just got m class rank it's 67%. What should I put for common app. Decile/quartile/quintile. There is not a choice for half</p>
<p>Put exact for the class rank reporting and put 67 for the class rank. </p>
<p>@Purple205 thats incorrect, you don’t know how many people are in their school.</p>
<p>This would be listed by either decile or quartile. IMO I’d use quartile, but decile would be more accurate.</p>
<p>ok if it’s decile that means you’re in the top 10%, 20%, 30%, 40 50 etc. quartile is top 25%, 50 75 etc. quintile is 5 10 15 20 25 etc. so you should put 67/the number of students at your school. </p>
<p>@Purple205 you’re not understanding, 67 is not OPs class rank, its their percentile. They’d be 7th decile or the 3rd quartile. not 67/number of students at school.</p>
<p>Ohhh ok so decile would be accurate</p>
<p>Quintile is actually 0-20%, 20-40%, 40-60% 60-80% and 80-100%. Decile divides it up into 10 segments, quintile 5 segments, quartile 4 segments.</p>
<p>It is actually hard to tell from what the OP says where they fall, because I don’t know if the 67% means that 66% of the students in her class are above her, as guineagirl96 appears to have assumed, or if they are at the 67th percentile, like we talk about with SAT scores e.g. “I got a 2000, which puts me in the 93rd percentile. So I did better than 92% of the people that took the test”. If she is in the 67th percentile then she in in the 4th decile, 2nd quintile and 2nd quartile. If she is in the 33rd percentile, then she in in the 7th decile, 4th quintile, and 3rd quartile.</p>
