3 of ~600. The 3 of us were in pretty much all the same classes in Senior year, but it was never really a fight for #1. We all did as best we could and the chips fell as they may. IIRC, there were only 2 points difference in spots 1-5. The Salutatorian bested me by something like .02 points!
It was cool how we all had our strong/weak points. Valedictorian was impeccable in his history and social/political sciences but not so good with math, Salutatorian excelled in her English but struggled with sciences, and I was really good with math and sciences but had a hard time remembering dates in history. If you 'Frankensteined' us together, we could have become either one unstoppable UberNerd or a really crazy retard.
 
RANK IN: PROGRAM **64/*133 YEAR *245/*590
2005 MAY DEGREE GRANTED: B.SC. MECHANICAL ENGINEERING (HONS.) 2ND

2ND class honors means I was on the university drinking team 😉
 
~100/600.... 9th and 10th grade I didn't try, I had about a 3.0 with all easy classes. 11th and 12th grade I actually tried and had nearly all honors classes and got above a 4.0. I have no regrets, I'm going to the college I want to go, and I'll be right where I want to be when I finish.

lol

The group at my high school comprised some insanely smart people; we had... 8 valedictorians, I think, all honors kids. Of that group two are still amongst my close friends, three have remained excellent professional contacts, and two have remained good friends throughout college. Crazy how we all stayed together.

I'm the one in my group most interested in finance, accounting, law, and politics, pretty much the only one, actually.
 
Like 210 out of 425. I was bored as hell since kindergarten and by the time HS was finished, I was totally disgusted with it and just wanted out.

I never even went to graduation. I had a deal with my mom that if I didn't quit my job, I could pass on it. But a week before, she told me to go ahead and quit, and I didn't have to go if I didn't want to.

Turned out I missed a great tirade by the Fueher..uh principal, who went ballistic when the caps were tossed. What a moron he was. Last time a friend and I saw him, we clicked our heels together and gave him the Nazi salute and said, "Hail to the F....! (his last name) He cussed us out. It was great.
