Nor does it make much sense. I was 28/290 in high school, but voted "Most Likely to Succeed" at graduation. Now I'm a hacker in a successful startup. Obviously something other than my grades caused everyone to vote me over 27 other people. 5 of my classmates above me went to Harvard, 2 to Columbia, 2 to NYU, 1 to MIT, I went to a state school. I'm doing better than of them today. How did my classmates know that was going to happen? Not to mention in college I knew a couple valedictorians who wouldn't be #40 in our high school. So rank doesn't mean anything, and grades mean less.
I was an A- student in high school and a B student in college, but with all the extra time I had I hacked and read. The A+ students spent all their time working on their homework and learned nothing else. That has something to do with it.
