Is 3.5/4.0 a good GPA?

Basically the title, I have slightly above that. Also, is it possible to round the GPA? If it’s 3.66 can I say it’s 3.7? Is it an utter mistake if I accidentally did that since GPA framework is so new to me and I mostly dealt with UK system of counting (1:1,2:1, etc) ? How to do a damage control now then? Please reduce negativity and sarcasm, I’m genuinely concerned rn! Thanks a lot!

Just wanna say I have a 3.0 at a non target getting all As for the next 3 semesters will bring me to a 3.5 shit is so tuff I had a rlly bad situation freshmen year and it got tanked 😭🙏

 


Stay focused. You’d be surprised how good of a cure (from anything) learning actually is.

 

It's perfectly fine at an Ivy or other top target. You won't not get an internship or FT job because you have a 3.5 lol. On a side note, it's pretty crazy how much you forget about your grades 2-3 years after school. No one cares anymore
