How to get a 4.0 GPA this semester by Rose

"It made all those late nights, papers, and readings SO worth it!"

How I did it: I worked my arse off. I always did assignments and tried to never miss class. I surprised myself with some of my classes, but none of my A's were handed to me.

Lessons & tips: Make sure you follow everything in the syllabus and follow professor's directions. If your professor lets you rewrite assignments for a better grade or do extra credit - DO IT! Even if you have an A, do it! Go to class. Participate.

Resources: The school library, my friends who were willing to read over my papers or listen to me bitch, my fiance, and caffeine.

Thank you! I did learn a lot, definately more than just what was in the books and assignments. It is definately an awesome way to be entering into my last two semesters at college.

too bad it wasnt your first two semesters. anybody can get a 4.0 for one semester. but going back and maintaining it is was separates the winners from the losers. Late nights and coffee definitely isnt the way to go. Routine and biofeed back is how the pro’s do it.

It is too bad...

But it actually wasn’t my first semester. It was my second semester of Junior year. Thanks for the advice, though! =)
