I am currently ranked in the top 13% of my class ( had a 3.66 gpa, curve is 3.0) and need to be in the top 25% to keep my scholarship. I was wondering what is the biggest drop in class rankings people have seen from fall to spring grades. I am starting to get worried I won't be in the top 25% after this semester.

I wanted to see what GPA I could get to remain inside top 10%, and even if I get median grades this semester, I'm fine. I found that reassuring. 12% is a big drop.
Wait, how does that work?

I actually know someone who dropped from 10-15 to 25-30. He slacked off.

Good idea - apparently I can end up at median and still be top 25%. That is nice.
