I wouldn't stress too much, rank one doesn't guarantee a better study score. I think people put a bit too much weight on it than is necessary. In my cohort there were people who did much better than their rankings suggest and others who did worse. Your score is mostly dependent on your exam mark. For instance, I was rank one for English at my school but I didn't dux the subject. Someone from outside the top 10 got a 50 (which is rare, but does go to show that rankings are only an indicator and don't mean everything).
