Hello everyone.

Is the sentence below grammatically correct?

In his class he has the most friends.

Best regards,

This sentence is confusing to me when worded this way. I think it needs more information to convey a clear idea.

It seems you are saying that he has more friends in the class than anyone else? (He has more friends than anyone else in his class.)

Is this what you mean? - Kristi
