What was your High School Class Rank?
Who cares?
You gonna ask us for our high school extracurricular activities next?
I don’t recall class rankings being announced at my high school. We had a valedictorian and I guess a salutatorian. I can’t recall who they were.
I don’t even know how many students were in my senior graduating class. It must of been at least 300 to 400.
I know I was definitely in the the Top 1000 of my graduating class, if that is any help.
I was Number 12 in a class of 600-something.
My 60th BD is tomorrow (yeah, happy freakin birthday, right?) and I have NEVER EVER needed to share my high school ranking information to anyone, for any reason.
Thank you for giving me that opportunity before I die.

Nah, next will be how smart our kids are. and the overwhelming response will be that 99% of dopers kids are at the genius level.
Salutatorian. This one I will brag about because it was one of the greatest accomplishments of my life - I was a legally emancipated minor working full time to support myself. At the time it was a big middle finger to my parents who told me I’d never succeed in life because I was so lazy.
Second, but there were only two of us.
Oooo-kay, this one is a sore spot with me. As we neared graduation we had a graduating class of exactly 400.
Two months before graduation, a girl had twins, her dad kicked her out of the house, and in short she had bigger problems than finishing the school year… so she dropped out and we had a graduation class of 399.
Of which I was ranked 40th. So I was no longer in the top ten percent.
I was number one. The school was so small I was the entire top 25%.
I couldn’t even tell you. I was - at best - an indifferent student my senior year and my grades had slipped quite a bit. But I still probably ended up in the top 1/3. But that is pure conjecture. (Which is why I didn’t vote, because I didn’t want to skew the results with guess work.)
#7 out of only 63. So I was in the top ten, but not the top 10%. 
I graduated with “Great Distinction”, which meant my grades averaged out to 90% or more in my senior year. I have no idea how many students were in my graduating class or how many of them had the same honor, so I can’t guess at my rank.
I was the 5th tallest guy in my high school. Also, the youngest in my graduating class. I was not, however, the best dressed.
#3, but the Valedictorian and Salutatorian both said that they had to work extra hard to stay ahead of me. I didn’t work particularly hard, myself.
You mean marks-wise?
From the title of the thread, I thought it meant your social rank among your high school class peers.
I guess we weren’t really ranked in our classes.
I have no idea what a “salutatorian” is. Maybe it’s an American thing?
Salutatorian-#2 Graduate in a class. (by GPA)
My (public) high school didn’t rank students; to get in at all you have to take an exam and only about 5% are selected. My school felt it would be unfair to rank someone “low,” negatively affecting their college applications, when in fact the least qualified student at my high school was more qualified for university education than 98% of students in our city.
The valedictorian is, historically, assured of admission to Harvard, but I was nowhere near that. probably in the top 50% if I had to guess. I knew a lot of people both smarter and harder working than me, but I wasn’t in the bottom half.
Our rankings weren’t listed anywhere, so I have no idea. We had a valedictorian and such, but that was it. Given my incredibly low career GPA, however, I’m sure if we were ranked I’d have been in the bottom third or so.
