Science Fair Project

Recommended Posts

My 8th grader is doing a science fair project. He needs the following info for his data collection:

 

1) Your high school rank

2) Number of students in your graduating class

3) Job title you have held that paid (or would have paid if you changed jobs for whatever reason) the highest salary. Just the title - DO NOT PROVIDE SALARY INFO.

 

 

He's testing to see if there is a correlation between HS rank and future financial success.

You guys are some smart f***ers!

 

I have no idea what my class rank was...probably around the top 40 percentile.

 

I suspect there were about 250 dudes in my graduating class.

Interestingly, Google has done some studies which show the university you attended only impacts your career for the first two years out of college.

This might be a little odd, but is it better to show GPA vs. class rank? I ask because I can't contribute. My school didn't have a class rank.

 

I'd say I was probably top 10-20% with a school with about 1200 students. I am an Assistant Vice President, Financial Planning & Analysis

An estimate is good enough for me. He just needs data. It's an 8th grade science fair project. It's inherently flawed.

 

I made up all of the data for mine in 8th grade.

You can literally figure out the school I'm at by reading beneath my name at the left :)

I've narrowed it down to New Mexico State and North Carolina A&T. :P

 

Both of which are state schools so you must be really good at writing grants.
