How to talk about the position, higher or lower than others, that a person has among the members of a group of students who graduated from college with them. In other words, how your academic achievements measure up to those of your classmates.
Cómo hablar de la posición que ocupas (más alta o más baja) en comparación con otras personas que se graduaron contigo en la Universidad.
How are you ranked in your classs?
He ranks number one in his class.
The student is ranked number one in his class.
I rank number two in my class.
In Modern Literature:
"“How are you ranked in your class?” Mr. Lambert asked.
“Top five.” Not top five percent, but top five. That was enough of an answer for all of them. Top five out of three hundred. He could have said number three, a fraction away from number two, and within striking distance of number one. But he didn’t. They came from inferior schools—Chicago, Columbia and Vanderbilt, as he recalled from a cursory examination of Martindale-Hubbell’s Legal Directory. He knew they would not dwell on academics."
