how did YOU pull up your grade to a 3.0 higher (jun, seniors)

Are you in high school or college?

Grew up. My GPA was low when I was younger. I committed myself more when I went back, older and wiser. It raised my GPA significantly.

We can't retake any course with a passing grade.

I studied my butt off.

I did look over your previous post. You should probably talk to your school's counselors, see what they recommend, & make a game plan.

This will not be a quick fix. You will most likely have to find a school that will allow you to have these courses retaken & then actually retake them, making better grades than you have.

It's simple. All A's in everything you possibly can. You can do it if you put in absolutely everything you've got. I use to have lower grades and have friends who will think getting a B or a C is okay and you can't take that approach. Get the A, you're smart enough to ask for help which means you're probably smart enough to achieve the required results. You'll get there! Remove your distractions, talk to teachers, email them, sit in the front of class if you're not already. We did a class study at my university and the average test score went down by four points by every row from the front two in a class of 40 students. So sit up front. And so what if you have to throw in a nonsense class to help your grade out, just be sure to get an A and no more C's! They're officially unacceptable in your life! Good luck!

Pretty much what RunBabyRun said... I grew up, got serious about school, and now try to excel in everything I do.
