The class standing table on the Law School's website has just been updated to include Spring 2017 grades. If you include information about your class standing on your resume, you will want to consult the table to see if you need to make a change to your resume. As usual, the changes to the percentile cutoffs on the class standing table are small. See http://law.wisc.edu/career/new_grading_system.html

Please note: you should consult the column that includes your TOTAL credits completed when determining your class standing. Although your GPA is calculated using only credits for which you receive a law school letter grade, the six columns in the Class Standing chart are based on the total number of completed credits, not just letter graded credits.

For more information about GPA, class standing, Dean's List, etc., please see Read This First, Section 9 (http://law.wisc.edu/current/rtf/09.0.html)
