Is it possible to be ranked 52 and be in the Top 10 by junior year?

Is it possible? I was just wondering if it’s even worth me trying

What year are you in? How many kids in your class? I would aim for being in the top 10%. Lots of colleges are looking at % now. The different from a child ranked number 10 and one ranked number 11 isn’t that big of a difference.

@sensation723B I’m a freshmen atm and we have about 200. Is there hope?

After my first semester of freshman year I was ranked 105/461 and I just finished junior year and I’m ranked 20/465 now. My first semester wasn’t abysmal ( I had a couple B+'s) either. I mean this question varies heavily on the school but if you start getting lots of A’s right now you will be fine. GPA is probably a weak point in my application but I think my class rank and rigor make up for it some.

Anything is possible. But IMO you should stop focusing on rank and just do the best you can. It will all work itself out in the end.

@sensation723B @superbowser12 Thank you guys!
