<p>I'm a senior in high school btw
Academic GPA 3.4419:<br>
Class rank: 318 out of 602</p>
<p>Unweighted GPA 3.3953<br>
class rank:294 out of 602<br>
Freshman year really killed my gpa :/. Anyway should I leave school ranking blank if a school I'm applying to asks for it or makes it optional?</p>
<p>I think if your school ranks you have to report it. Seems like yours is really competitive, regardless it’s still mandatory I think.</p>
<p>I have heard that it is best not to report it (if possible, of course) unless in top 10%.</p>
<p>So in your case I definitely would not.</p>
<p>Okay thanks everyone:)</p>
<p>I’m not so sure that class rank is optional if your school does them. does anyone else know about this?</p>
<p>Well I am not sure about your case, but I can speak about my own. My GPA is 3.91 and yet my rank is only top 20% (102/530). Although the rank is lower than I would like, including it shows how competitive my high school is, therefore putting me in a better light. I would talk to the counselor and get their opinion. Good Luck!</p>
<p>Also, I would appreciate it if someone could comment on my thread:<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/1233028-accelerated-program-chances.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/college-admissions/1233028-accelerated-program-chances.html</a></p>

</p>
<p>Or maybe how extremely your high school’s grading standards are inflated?</p>
