Question

Many employees screen gpa in addition to a variety of skills. Suppose a student is in the last semester of college and has a 2.68 gpa after 108 credit hours. If he is taking 12 credit hours in his last semester and gets a perfect 4.0 gpa, what will his overall gpa be? Is it possible to get his gpa up to 3.0 for graduation?

Answer 1

Answer:

• Overall GPA=2.81
• It is not possible to get his GPA to 3.0 for graduation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Student already has a GPA of 2.68 after 108 credit hours.

If he is taking 12 credit hours in his last semester and gets a perfect 4.0 GPA

Total Credits Earned Before = 2.68 X 108=2894.4

Projected Credit to be earned = 12 X 4= 48 Credits

Total credit Hour= 108+12=120 Hours

His Cumulative GPA = Total credits earned ÷ Total Credit Hour

$=\frac{2894.4+48}{120} =2.81$

Since 2.81 is less than 3.00, it is not possible to get his GPA to 3.0 for graduation.
