Is it possible to bring my overall GPA up this fast......?

Question

my gpa is a 2.3 and im trying to get into WVU. it's not too hard to get into but im also from out of state so i need atleast a 2.5 and to be safe it would be great if i had a 2.7.

im going into my senior year... if i got all A's in 7 classes from sept. to december ish. would it be possible to bring up my overall gpa that fast?

Answer 1

It really depends on how many credits you've already taken.  You said you're going into your senior year so if you are on a normal pace, that would be about 90 credits, or roughly 30 classes.  If you got all A's, that would mean your GPA would be 2.62 for all A's, if you have taken 90 credits worth of courses.  Also, you have to throw in the fact that you'd be taking 7 classes...That's no easy feat to do.  So in short, yes, it is possible but it isn't likely due to the fact that it would be extremely hard to maintain such good grades in all 7 courses.  

Answer 2

just do it!

Answer 3

Alternatively you can suck all your teachers off... then you'll end up with a 3.5

Answer 4

To be realistic, prob. not, although I think it should help a lot; just do it anyway! Colleges like to see that you've improved over the years.

Answer 5

No. s***w it. Have a life. College sucks.

Answer 6

IT WILL HELP A LOT BUT STILL TRY TO DO GOOD FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR AND YOU WILL GET THAT 2.5

Answer 7

it's possible but it also depends on your teachers and how difficult they are in their grading. In my expericence some teachers just dont give easy As even if you are doing a great job in their class. Another factor is your dedication. You have to be comitted to getting that GPA up this means you'll have to do all assignments even if they're not graded, have perfect attendance, spend extra time studying, getting a tutor of having a study buddy in the class, giving up your party habits, and most importantly building a relationship with your professor.

If its a subject your weak in let them know at the beginning that you want to learn it your willing to put in work.

Hope I helped :)

Answer 8

Go for it! Colleges love to see improvement. It may not make much of a difference on your cumulative GPA, but colleges will see the tremendous improvement. It won't hurt, and overall it will make you a better student.

Good luck.

Answer 9

Yes.  (2.3*6+4*1)/7 = 2.54.  So if you get all A's in the fall semester, and can wait to send in your transcript until your grades come back, you'll have a 2.54 (assuming you took 7 classes a semester for the last 3 years).

Answer 10

yes, but you need to get all A's

Answer 11

yes it should be possible. Hard work and trust in god is the key.
