College Confidential - View Single Post - Are all my dreams end? How to get an engineering internship/job with low GPA

Let's see..You need an average of 3.2. So that's
3.2x4=12.8

You current gpa is 2.4 at best. So that's
2.4x2=4.8

12.8-4.8=8

You have two years to bring your total gpa to 12.8. You are 8 points away.

8/2=4

So, you need a 4.0 each yr to get to your goal. That's a straight A average.

Better skip summer vacation and start studying.

P.S. All the arithmetic were done in my head in like 4 seconds. They might be wrong.
