Likewise, clas rank (if your school does it, or otherwise a general knowledge of GPA distribution at your school by the colleges) will also make a differance: a 3.8 reads very differently to adcoms if it puts you in the top 5% of your class vs. the top 20%.
An employee's gross pay is the amount of his wages before any deductions, including taxes and benefits. Gross pay may be determined by the amount an employee works, as in hourly pay, or at a set rate, as in a weekly salary.
If pay is on a salary basis, divide the annual salary by the frequency of payments. For example, if an employee earns an annual salary of $45,000 and the employer pays every other week, the gross pay for the pay period is $1,730.77: $45,000 divided by 26.
