high school in no way prepares you for college. don't bust your ass in High School. Get good SAT scores, and you are golden.

Not if you want to get into a top tier university

I know people who went to Yale with a 3.5 and 1560's on their SATs, High school GPA's don't mean d!ck.

And I can counter with a friend who got 1320s and a 4.0 and goes to Duke. What's your point
 
5/81 who graduated, I don't actually remember my gpa, but it was unweighted, with weighting I probably would have been higher, but not first, and I didn't really care at all. I was actually somewhat lazy. which hurt me a lot in college

My high school didn't keep track of ranks...the sheer number of 4.0 GPAs in my 700+ student class precluded such a possibility. I had a 3.81 though four years of HS, so I was probably somewhere in the top 25%.

My school officially said that they didn't do ranks, but if you ask the counselors they'd give it to you. The top 25% of my school had 4.0+ GPA. I think I had a 4.78 by the end of senior year 😀.

That GPA is bullshiz. I took 23 AP classes and they didn't inflate my GPA. On other scales like the one at your school, I would have had well over a 5.XX GPA.

woah, 23 AP classes. I'm on a track for like 18 or 19... people take like 26 plus carry like 8 honors from middle school=crazy high gpa (6.xx)
