Today, I took a look at my GPA, and i wasn't all that surprised. My GPA was a 3.5 and was quite satisfied with it. I figured it would be around that score because I started off in this year with a rocky start and missed a few assignments. I'm not totally thrilled to have this GPA, because I know i can do better, but It's fine right now. I am happy with it.
I was planning to got to a higher class school, like MIT or Cornell or UCSD, but if I want to make those schools, I need a high GPA. Preferably, someplace between a 3.7 and a 4.0 and I need to score high on my SAT's, somewhere between a 1600 and and 1800 for any of those schools. I will also need to score high on my ACT's as well, because these are some of the top schools in the country, and people from all over the world try and enroll in these schools and I would need to stand out among all the others.
The next step I was going to take is to work harder, but not put too much effort into my work. Simply do things I need to do, like turn in homework and do class work. Not procrastinate, and do work when I'm supposed to do it. Study for tests, because I haven't been satisfied with some of my tests. And overall, get a higher GPA. At least a 3.8. Then I would have a higher chance to get in those schools that I would like to enroll in.
