<p>At my school</p>
<p>what I said before is true</p>
<p>If I were to get a 3.5 I would be within the top 5% of my class of 550 students, If i were to have a 3.29, I would be within the top 10% of my class, If i had a 2.94, I would be within the top 20% of my class</p>
<p>My high school is pretty competitive, quite a few kids get into top colleges</p>
<p>So would colleges look more into rank</p>
<p>This is all out of 4.0</p>
<p>at my DD’s school a 3.5 only gets you top 15%</p>
<p>Yeah, they would. </p>
<p>And at my school, 3.5 gives u only top 26%. >_></p>
<p>Ash…
What is your weighted GPA (does your school weigh?)</p>
<p>I’d make sure that the transcript specifies rank!!! yikes! You’re competing against other schools’ kids whose grading is easier.</p>
<p>Lucky… 3.5 at my HS was top 50%.</p>
<p>Yes, rank is most important as they look at you in the context of your school. They will also look to see if you;'ve taken your school’s hardest classes.</p>
