“Class rank is important for more than just wowing college admissions officers and securing bragging rights”. The main ideas to inform that class ranking is important; if you have better grades then the healthier you’re in years later. The author’s viewpoint is that more degrees equal better health. I think by what the author means is the better you do in school and the better your grades are you’re going to be healthier in later years. In the article the author questions “why good grades correlate with better health?” I think just being an A student have more of a conscientious not only about academics but their health too. The article stated that “perhaps the skills required excelling in school”. That a quote tells me that the author means it will lead the students with all A’s to a better instinct to improve on life and do better in their jobs.

People questioning that if you’re an A student you will be healthier years later then what if they make average grades and still be healthier years later? Hmm I wonder if the author has more conflicting evidence on if or if not it has to do with grades. I think it’s just a heart—smart thing to do, just to make people think what the author thinks.
