    Then it has to be specifically mentioned. Maybe a bonafide letter from the coll or uni stating the toppers mark.

    all were pretty ambitious universities.
    Gtech,Purdue,Uni of maryland at college park, Upenn, NCSU, vanderbilt.
    Distinction for University of Pune is 66%.
    Pune university is considered one of the toughest to score good.
    if you ask me,my scores put me in top 10 of 120 from my college.Uni topper is from my class @ 80.5%

    Ah, yes the unis were ambitious...still, if u'd mentioned clearly abt the scoring pattern in ur uni and submitted a bonafide regarding the topper mark and ur relative position, it may have helped...do tht for ur next application....but u'll need a different list of unis. Except vanderbilt, al the others are very very competitive. They'll want publishing/projects/work exp/internships
