The time is here, April is among us. We all have a round one month left in this semester, and that means not many more grades are going in. We have reached the last of the assignments and exams, and the reality has set in that it is up to these last few assignments to either make or break our GPA. I like to call this time "save your GPA month" because everyone is doing whatever they can to get the best GPA they can this semester and I'm sure you do most of these things as well!
1. Extra credit.
If you are lucky enough to have a professor that gives you extra credit opportunities, TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THOSE!! This is the time where you frantically get those assignments in so that you can get all of the extra credit points that you can to raise your grades as high as possible.
2. Tutoring.
There's probably a class where you have lesson that you just don't understand no matter how hard you try. You come to the realization that you need a tutor because there is no way that you will understand that content in time. Finals are coming around so go ace that material!!
3. Study sesh 24/7.
You come terms with the fact that you just don't put enough time in (if any) towards studying and learning the material for your classes and thats got to change. Wether it is just an extra 45 minutes a day you spend reviewing the material you have learned or spending a few hours a week in the library, your grades will thank you when you do really well on your exams!
4. Going to office hours.
You have made it so far in the semester and completley forgot about professors having office hours. What better way to get help or tips to get the most out of the rest of the semester than going to your professor directly? Office hours are certainly helpful to get a good relationship with your professor and figure out the best plan to get the best grade in the class!
5. Reading the textbooks.
Okay, this is what NO ONE wants to actually do, but in most cases, you need to. Reading seems like such a waste of time, especially if it is some boring textbook that you spend WAY too much money on. But trust me, it will benefit you to understand the material so that when you go into class, the lecture makes so much more sense!
