<p>I've been seeing lots of threads like these. But how much do upgrades in GPA really impact you? Such as my stats:</p>
<p>Freshman--
1st semester-3.33/3.33 W
2nd semester- 3.65/3.65 W</p>
<p>OVERALL: 3.5/3.5 W</p>
<p>Sophomore--
1st semester- 4.0/ 4.1 W
2nd semester- 3.75/ 5.0 W</p>
<p>OVERALL: 3.69/4.0 W</p>
<p>Junior--
1st semester: 4.0/5.0 W
2nd semester: 4.0/4.8 W</p>
<p>OVERALL: 3.79/4.3 W</p>
<p>Is that a good improvement? Would it make any significance toward admissions?</p>
<p>That’s a very good improvement and it’ll definitely be significant. Why is your 2nd semester jr year weighted GPA lower than 1st semester? You had a 4.0 both halves so you had straight A’s.</p>
<p>I took 1 AP less than the 1st semester. I’m in a block schedule so each semester are different classes. I took AP Bio and AP Lang first semester and AP USH and Hons Pre Cal second. I also took AP Chem second semester of sophomore year. It sucks because you don’t learn everything by the time you take AP exams.</p>
