title says it all :)

im a first year business student;
in my first semester I got c+, c- and f, so obviously I was on AP.
second semester retook the class I failled and got an A+ ! but my other classes received B+ and D.

I'm so proud of myself that I was able to get that A+ to replace my F, too bad I had to take it twice though.

The prospect of improving is really exciting for me so I'd like to hear from any AP students who have really pushed past their difficulties! How high is your gpa now?

:D

    I was on AP after my first year, with a CGPA of 1.9. I'm in my third year now and since AP I haven't had a SGPA lower than 3.5 and I had a 4.08 last term (A,A-,A+,A+). My current CGPA is 3.37 and I'm hoping to have it at 3.7 by the end of my third year.

    MBB 231: A-
    STAT 201: A
    CMPT 110: A+ (really easy course)
    BISC 202: A+

    I've been studying more and more each semester, but I've yet to go through a semester actually keeping up with material in all of my classes. I still find myself cramming, I'm just cramming earlier than I used to. Hopefully I can stay caught up in my classes next semester.

    My friend was on AP because he never went to class, but then again he's dropping out I think. It's great to hear that you reversed your grades the next term. I'm trying to get into business myself, so it's kinda intimidating that you have to have a 3.0 or so in the lower division business classes to get in, but all I can do is try my hardest, and maybe retake a course or two if I'm not pleased with the grades.

    Have yet to get lower than a B in a class myself, but I feel like I might with MATH 157 next term. :\
