:> Actually, it always kind of ticked me off, that I was ranked

:> Chemistry III, Electronics III, AP Physics, AP English, Enriched 
:> Trig, Economics, and Calculus (my senior-year course-load) weren't as 
:> good as some other kid's grades in Concert Choir, Business Math, 
:> Citizenship, and Typing.

My high school had QCA for rating students against each other.  Quality 
Credit Average meant that an A in a GT class was worth 7.0 points, while 
an A in an Average class was worth 4.0 points.

It worked out pretty well, really.
