GPA help

<p>I have a 3.71 cumulative, but will probably get a 3.1 this semester. How much will my cumulative drop?</p>

<p>It depends. What grade are you in? If you are a sophomore it will drop a lot more then if you are a senior… Also are you taking the same number of classes for the same number of credits as previous semesters?</p>

<p>I’m a junior and I took 6 classes last semester rather than 7.</p>

<p>You have to add up the gpas from each semester of high school then divide by the total number of semesters for example lets say you we’re a freshmen and you got a 3.5 first semester and a 3.95 second semester to calculate your overall gpa you would add 3.5+3.95 then divide by 2 (the number of semesters) and your overall would be 3.7 . We can’t calculate it for you we would need each gpa from each semester</p>

<p>I’ve gotten 3.82, 3.82, 3.42, 3.57, and 3.1 (this semester). Plus I took two college classes over the summer, so I’m not sure how that got calculated in there.</p>

<p>Without the college classes, it’s a 3.65, with them it’s a 3.71.</p>

<p>Unless they where dual enrollment they will not alter your high school GPA. The 3.65 will most likely be your new GPA…</p>

<p>Yea they were dual enrollment.</p>

<p>Edit: The 3.65 is what it would be without the class I took last summer. With them, it’s a 3.71. My GPA IS a 3.71 right now, haha. Just to clarify.</p>

<p>Oh… Sorry I misunderstood. So then you would do the following math (know this will be slightly off since I am calculating as if you are earning the same number of credits) (3.71(4)+3.1)=17.94
17.94/5=3.588
This means your new GPA is going to be around a 3.588</p>

<p>I calculated it for you it will be specifically a 3.546 (3.82+3.82+3.42+3.57+3.1 divided by 5=3.546)</p>

<p>Thanks guys. Looks like I’m going to have to work my behind off next semester.</p>

<p>No problem and good luck!</p>
