HS rank?

<p>this may have already been answered on one of the threads, but anyway, how important is high school class rank when applying for sophomore transfer (freshman now)?</p>

<p>i think they'll care more about your HS GPA and SAT's than your rank.</p>

<p>i believe they go together. the rank provides a context to undersanding your gpa. in my neighborhood there is a school where 3.8 doesn't put you in the top 20% of the class.</p>

<p>A 4.0, at my high school, did not put you in the top 20 percent of the class. (grade inflation)</p>

<p>how is that possible? is that weighted?</p>
