[Counselors] Class rank

[OSRHE EPAS PK-12 Counselor Discussion Board]

·         At Soper we do not do ties. For instance this year I had 3 seniors with a 4.2 GPA according to our student information system. We take the 17 core classes plus the classes required to be considered for val/sal and average their numerical grades. Then rank them based off of that information.
Tina Jeffreys, School Counselor


·         We run it sequentially, because that is what's best for the student.  Colleges will give a valedictorian scholarship to every #1; they will give a valedictorian scholarship to #2.

Vicki Harbert, Tishomingo HS


·         Depew runs sequential.

·         At Turpin we use logical.



·         At Buffalo we do sequential.

I have a question on the best way to run class rank.
I can run it 2 different ways: Logical or Sequential
��
Logical - Example: 4 students at #1, then 5th student at #5.
Rank 1   Student 1 - 4.0
Rank 1   Student 2 - 4.0
Rank 1   Student 3 - 4.0
Rank 1   Student 4 - 4.0
Rank 5   Student 5 - 3.99
��
Sequential - Example: 4 students at #1, then 5th student at #2.
Rank 1   Student 1 - 4.0
Rank 1   Student 2 - 4.0
Rank 1   Student 3 - 4.0
Rank 1   Student 4 - 4.0
Rank 2   Student 5 - 3.99
