Hi, I am currently a junior high school student attending Pine View School, which is a magnet school for accelerated students. Obviously, this type of school refuses to rank its students, and has only provided me with a decentile. This is where things are starting to trouble me.
I have 4.5, cumulative, weighted GPA based off of my English, science, and math scores from the first five semesters of high school. According to my school's college resource officer, this puts me in the 50th percentile of my class of 197.
I read the FAQ for USNA admissions on this forum, and one question talked about a GPA of 3.9. The response was that class rank is much more important, so this is starting to make me worried. The Summer Seminar application also requires that you give a class ranking, and not a percentage. Is there anything I can do besides explain my situation to them in their little "additional remarks" box?
