What does a student have to do in order to reach top ten percent of their senior class?

Well, I’m currently a senior and i’m in a class with over 800 students and i want to better my Rank, I would personally want to be in top ten percent, if that’s even possible…So all I’ve been told was that class grades count and getting A’s and B’s will help me better my Rank. At the moment I have a Rank of 252.

It would be impossible to rise from 252 to 80. Period.

You’d have to have better grades than 720 other students. That’s all there is to it at most schools.

As a senior, you don’t have much time to make an impact on your rank.

The only thing you can control is your grades. Rising in rank would mean that you did way better than others which will probably not happen. But you can do well Senior year in tough courses to show that you are ready for college.
