5 min read · Updated 2026-06-15
Understand the math
GPA is credit-weighted, so a strong term lifts your cumulative GPA most when you have few prior credits. Use the GPA goal planner to see the exact average you need.
High-impact habits
- Prioritise high-credit courses — they move your GPA most.
- Replace or retake low grades where your school’s policy allows.
- Use the final grade calculator to focus effort where it changes outcomes.
- Front-load attention early in the term when recovery is easier.
