Hello all,
On the AADSAS, when asked about percentile in graduating class, if you are at top of the class, would that be ranked at 90 & over, or 1-24. I know this sounds like a weird question, but do they mean 1-24 as in "top 1-24 %", or you rank at 1-24% (from the low end). Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I was in top 10%, so i put 1-24. I think it should be right
 
I thougth 90% and over means over 90% percentile which means your ranked in the top 10%
 
Ya, I think I would put over 90% since I was top 8% in senior high.
 
Yeah, I think you would put over 90%. That's what I put in, at least.
 
I understood the question as asking what number did you rank in your graduating class. I graduated number six so I put 1-24.
 
It's getting pretty confusing. Can someone who filled out their apps. last year tell us what's right and what's wrong? I'd really appreciate your feedback.
 
The question refers to percentiles, not to the number ranking you held in your class.

Therefore, option 5, or 1-24%, would be the absolutely WORST percentile, where as option 1, or 90% and over, is the BEST ranking.
 
Thanks all so much for your inputs. My instincts say to put 90 & up as well, but wasn't so sure! Anyhow, you all are great!!
 
hi! just for peace of mind let me tell ya I actually called the AADSAS service a few days ago and asked them about the high school ranking. From down on high they told me that being number ten in my class meant I should mark 90% and over on the applilcation.
Toodles!
 
can someone tell me how to convert units to course hours? My college was on a quarter system with normal classes being 4 units.
thanks in advance
