Say 100 students started in your class, but over the course of the next four years, 5 of them failed out for academic reasons. Come graduation, say you were 10th in the class. So would your final class rank be 10/95 (class size at graduation) or 10/100 (the original class size)? Because technically, those 5 that dropped out should be bottom five in the class.
