Well, she's in the top 3% for height in her age bracket. That is, she's taller than at least 97% of her peers. (I thought that was awfully tall, but I didn't know for sure until I looked it up.) She's heavier than about 80% of her peers, but that doesn't strike me as very unusual for a girl so tall. Then again, I'm just guessing. I have no medical credentials. Read the CDC height/weight charts in PDF form here:

Oh yeah, and if you have trouble reading them, print them out and start plotting height and weight vs. age and you'll see how she measures up to the rest of the population by comparing lines. Good night!

You can use this calculater and at 101 lbs, 5'3" 11 years 6 months she appears to have an ideal weight. Another calculater I used indicated she is slightly underweight but that one uses an opinion of frame size (small, med , large )

According to her height, she is at a normal weight, there is nothing to worry about, if any shes also a bit underweight.
