GPA should not be below 3.0

Lin Song, Web Co-Editor

Come to class, finish homework on time and pass the test. An “A” is coming! So why do some students have a GPA lower than 3.0?

GPA is like the payroll for students. The more work students do, the higher scores they get.

GPA is a direct standard for colleges to choose freshmen. It can sometimes give others a first impression on a student.

A good GPA can bring college acceptance, scholarships and good jobs. Actually, students with higher GPA can have a better life arrangement and a happier mood. It is because their life will have a clear schedule and they will not be bothered by various tasks.

Many students complain that they do not have enough time to do their homework and prepare for tests. Some are really busy all the time because of extra curricular activities and housework, while others just use that as an excuse.

GPA does not represent every single part of the study process. However, a low GPA shows that there must be some problems with learning methods and attitude.

What about the people who ignore their GPA? People have the freedom to think that their GPA is not important but it is an irresponsible thought. Wasting time leads to nothing.

Why would you spend twelve years in school to get nothing? Do not waste young energy and perfect memory cells. Start fighting for your GPA.
