class ranking
Student achievement order
Class ranking is a student's academic standing relative to others in their graduating class, typically expressed as a position or percentile: She graduated third in her class, His class ranking put him in the top ten percent.
Schools calculate rankings from cumulative grade point averages, and colleges often consider them in admissions decisions.
Some schools have abandoned the practice, viewing it as unnecessarily competitive.
