<p>So my class rank was top 5% at my school for freshman, sophomore, and the first half of junior year (admittedly it did drop after 1st semester) I somewhat justify this as I had been extremely upset/bitter/depressed about moving in the middle of freaking junior year. But my grades are much better this semester. But the problem is, at my new school, my class rank is in the 100s!! Out of a slightly smaller class!! This doesn't make sense. Even weighted I'm still at 40. If I send in both of my transcripts, will colleges be able to tell something's weird? Or will they just look at my new school and be like, Wow this person's class rank sucks...???</p>
<p>btw: my old school was much more competitive (no matter what the kids here say) and was ranked higher nationally. My old school was also an AP school 4th in my state, while this one is a decent IB school. Which sucks for me.</p>
