In my case, I scored 100% in Maths and was in the top 0.1%ile. Where does this fit?
If I was in your shoes I would probably put it in awards section in the application. Use the real estate in essays & the resume for something stronger. While top 0.1%ile is an excellent achievement, that still means there are at least 1500 other folks with the same score. If you do have space left after writing about other achievements, put it in the resume. This is my opinion - at the end of the day the application as a whole is very personal & unique to each applicant. It depends on how you position it.

What about rank holders during grad? Should one mention it
WA@keb3175, In the application portal when you are filling in your UG / PG details, they ask for class rank (not a mandatory field). If you essays & resume are already full / you have enough anecdotes to talk about, would suggest putting the rank there instead of using real estate in your essays. The word limit is just 400-400-250. Every word has to count.
