<p>We don't rank, but top 10% is 4.5 weighted and above so</p>
<p>a 4.0 with 12 honors/ap/ib classes by the end of junior year</p>
<p>More often than not people will have 3.9 in 16 or so</p>
<p>Show up at least 2x a week, take a few honors/aps and make semi-decent grades (B-C range). It's virtually impossible not to be in the top 10% if you actually put in a little bit of effort. I'm 4th in my class and I've barely ever done any of my homework.</p>
<p>Have a 4.0 UW
top 10% at my school is top 4 and it's very competitive with top sophomores taking 2 AP's and top half of seniors taking 6 or more</p>
<p>Do yer homework.</p>
<p>At my school, about a 3.9 is necessary for the top ten, since I only have fifty students in my class. But there are no AP/IB/honors, so it's possible to get the 3.9 by taking the easiest courses possible. Fortunately, no one does that.</p>
<p>Since we only do UW, about at 3.95 is currently needed to be top 10 in my junior class. For the seniors though, its usually only about a 3.8 UW.</p>
<p>I'm not sure about the exact GPA, but you have to be ranked in the top 9 to be in the top 10%. One of my friends said our grade is ridiculous b/c she has a 3.7 and she's not even in the top 25%. On the flip side, only 2 people have 4.0's (UW)... so 3-9 are all very very close. That's probably b/c my school's grading scale is annoying; an A- (91.5-93) has a different weight than a B+, and B has a different weight from a B-, and so on.</p>
<p>a hell of a lot. you need to have a strong educational background and be highly motivated. supposedly no black/hispanic student has ever made the top 10% at my school because it's no joke.</p>
<p>we got like 6 APs ---i dont do **** an im just outside the top 5%...but rank is determined solely by weighted at my shool..so u just need to take hard classes...if u get C+s/B-'s in APs ur pretty much in because APs carry 30 point on the hundred scal...u need like a 105% weighted to mae top 10 id say..</p>
<p>3.7-8ish UW for top 10% (47 or so students)</p>
<p>Lol wow. at my school a 5.2/5.0W puts you just within the top 25 percent.</p>
<p>uh lol, prolly average a B... in classes that are so ridiculously easy its not even funny haha.</p>
<p>not in the top 15 percent and i have a 3.86.</p>
<p>PRob a 4.6 Weighted would qualify for top ten percent</p>
<p>3.6 or so. It's not easy to get in though, there is one 4.0 in the entire class, we have less grade inflation so a 3.6 is pretty good here.</p>
<p>Don't be an idiot. Don't take dumb classes like paddle sports. Even then, you might be top 10%...</p>
<p>Nobody tells us our rankings (no one bothers to ask) but you'd have to be within the top 6 students. I'm guessing about a 95% average or better (UW). It's pretty tough.</p>
<p>a lil bit above 4.0 w to be in top 10%. We do a regular 4.0 grading scale where ap=5.0</p>
<p>around 3.9 Weighted, a full IB school.</p>
<p>7 honors classes with A's in all of them every single year is not good enough to get you in the top 10% at my school. You need to be getting A's in AP classes too.</p>
