How Can I Raise A 1.7 To A 2.0

How can I raise a 1.7 to a 2.0?

It depends upon the number of credits you took last semester and the number you are planning to take next semester. If the number of credits are the same for each semester.

A 2.3 average next semester would give you a 2.0 exactly. A 3.3 would give you a 2.5

I have a 1.7 GPA can I raise it?!?

All A's and B's gives you an GPA of 3.5, but adding a GPA of 3.5 to 1.7 will never get the 1.7 up to a 3.5 - you need to do better than a 3.5 to get the 1.7 to a 3.5, if it is possible.

Assuming you took the same number of classes every semester, and your grades are semester grades, you'll have:

(1.7 * 3 + (3.7 + 4.0 + 3.0 + 2.3 + 2.3)/5 ) / 4 = 2.04 GPA

at the end of this year. If you get a 3.5 GPA junior year, you'll have:

(2.04 * 4 + 3.5 * 2 ) / 6 = 2.53 GPA

at the end of junior year and

(2.04 * 4 + 3.5 * 4 ) / 8 = 2.77 GPA

by the time you graduate. If you got all A's instead of A's and B's, you'd have a 2.69 at the end of junior year and a 3.02 at the end of senior year. So no, it's not possible for you to get an unweighted 3.5. And colleges ask for unweighted grades.

How can I raise my GPA from a 2.0 to a 3.0 in one semester in high school?

Why is your GPA a 2.0? That needs to be understood before making suggestions as to how to raise it, Are you consistently in school? Do you have frequent absences!Do you hand in homework on time? These days teachers can penalize late homework heavily. Are you able to complete homework - all your homework? Do you leave class with an understanding of what was covered and are you clear about assignments?How ate your reading skills? Are you able to do assigned readings? Writing skills are critical - you communicate what you know through writing.Reading from textbooks can these days often be shortened to online summaries. Find the summaries and do the readings before class. Choose a seat near the front of your classrooms or ask for one, you end to engage your classes. Participate. Take notes even if not required to. Raise your hand, ask questions, offer answers.That would be a beginning.

Is it possible to raise my cumulative gpa 1.7 to 3.0?

Let's say you have taken 38 credits with a 1.7 cumulative GPA and are planning on taking an additional 14 credits. Then if you get straight A's (4.0) next semester in those 14 credits, your GPA at the end of next semester will be

((38 * 1.7) + (14 * 4.0))/(38 + 14)
= (64.6 + 56)/52
= 120.6/52
which is just a tiny bit under 2.32

(Note that this your GPA would actually be higher if, because you repeated classes, your earlier grades were not figured into your new GPA.)

If you were to take 14 credits in the fall and 14 in the spring and get a 4.0 in each semester, your GPA at this time next year would be

((38 * 1.7) + (28 * 4.0))/(38 + 28)
= (64.6 + 112)/66
= 176.6/66
which, rounded (up -- and it was almost low enough to be rounded down), comes to 2.68

3 semesters of 14 credits and a 4.0 gets you

((38 * 1.7) + (42 * 4.0))/(38 + 42)
= (64.6 + 168)/80
= 232.6/80
which would get rounded up to 2.91

And after 4 semesters of 14 credits each and a semester GPA of 4.0 each time, you'd get almost exactly 3.07

Obviously if you have actually attempted fewer than 38 credits, your GPA would be a little higher than my calculations show; you may not be taking 14 credits for each of the next 3 semesters (the more credits you take each semester, *assuming that added credits don't mean lower grades*, the faster your GPA can go up), and it's possible that you won't earn 4.0's -- we just use them because that gives us the maximum GPA that is mathematically possible. But you can stick the correct values for credits and your estimate of your semester GPA into the equation in place of what I have there (38, 14/28/42, 4.0) and come up with more accurate forecasts. And as I said, if your school will stop counting the earlier grades in classes you've re-taken, you can remove those early grades when you are figuring out the number of credits and the cumulative GPA from the first set of completed parentheses, the values for classes you've already taken.

But it looks as if it's going to take a couple of years to get your GPA up to 3.0 before graduation (assuming that graduation takes about 120 credits). It's within your grasp, but it's not going to happen this semester. I'm sorry.

I hope that you have a successful and enjoyable fall semester, though. Good luck.

Can you raise your GPA from a 1.3 to a 2.0 senior year of high school?

This question cannot be answered without knowing the number of credits you've taken previously.Say it's normal to take 8 credits each year. Then you've taken 24 credits over the previous three years, and will take 8 more this next year. To determine the maximum possible GPA, assume you get straight A's for the next eight credits. Then your overall GPA is[(number of previous credits)×(GPA for those classes) + (next 8 credits)×(4.0 GPA)]/(total number of credits)[math](24\times 1.3 + 8\times 4.0)/32 = 1.975.[/math]So in this system, no, you can't get a 2.0, unless you take more than the typical 8 credits and get an A in all of them; for example,[math](24\times 1.3 + 10\times 4.0)/32 = 2.25,[/math]so it's possible if you take 10 credits. Notice you don't need a perfect 4.0 to obtain the overall GPA of 2.0 if you take 10 credits.You now need to add up your credits to determine what you need to do and if you can get a 2.0.
