Slightly off topic, but noteworthy of mention:
My #20 ranking was considering the fact that I intentionally let my GPA drop to a 2.4 my junior year from a 3.1 in prior years (I'm surprised it was still in the top 15% after that) because I was trying to "dumb myself down" b/c I wanted to be seen as a "normal" student and not a "nerd".
Fortunately, FWIW, I came to my senses, said to heck with everyone else, and pulled a 3.5 and acheived like I was supposed to do. (I had a 3.8 the first grading period---all As and one B, the best grades I had in all the 12 years of schooling).
I never made National Honor Society--I always considered that org for "squares" and the social climbing suck-ups. The Kitty Hawk Air Society was all I needed.
