Last Quarter;s GPA IS 3.5

Average GPA TO GET INTO THESE COLLEGES IS 3.72

According to my last quarter's GPA I am getting there. In order to get into these colleges I need to get a higher GPA =.This quarter's GPA IS 3.8 if I continue to work like this I might have a chance.

             From this activity I learned that it is tough to get into competitive schools. My GPA which is acceptable and close, is still not enough to get into all four of them. I would have to work to get my GPA up in order to get into these competitive schools. This will change my habit as a student because these facts pressure a lot people. I will become more organized and start demanding only 4s to my self. I will also re-organize my life in order to get the necessary GPA. I also will have to dedicate more time of my life to shool and less to other things. If I was able to get that GPA in the first quarter without doing any effort of any kind, I might have a chance to get the required GPA if I do My best.
