rank whore

Defined as a person in high school who will take every AP class available for the sole purpose of leveling up their class rank or GPA, and not for the education. Makes up roughly 15% of our class of 2007.

Classes may include, but are not limited to:

AP Chemistry, AP Statistics, AP Biology, Honors Anatomy, AP Enviromental Science, AP Psychology, AP Sociology, AP Human Geography, AP European History, etc.

Everyone in the top 25% of our class has taken, or are taking, more than half of these classes..AT THE SAME TIME!

"Yo dude what classes are you taking?"

"Oh...AP Comp Sci, AP Enviro Sci, AP Bio, AP Stat, and some other crap"

"THE HELL?!"

"Dude I need to bring up my rank. I'M ONLY 23 (out of 180)! I NEED TO RANK IT UP"

Another symptom of The factor is the audible coo or screaming representation of excitement as one exhibiting symptoms of the factor cannot seem to say something like "Wow that sounds fun" Instead expressing excitement is limited to simple noises the most common being "Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew" (Not to be confused with "woo") The final symptom of the factor is an outrageous extension of the mandible, making the chin the dominant part of the tell tale expression made when one is "Acting a Rankin" The list of symptoms is still being researched at medical and psychological labs at universities throughout the United states, a case in Japan has almost garunteed The Rankin factor will become a worldwide epidemic.
