It took me a while to get to the 3.0 gpa and never lower like until 3rd yr. What i did is i studied from the very 1st weeks of the semester even if it didnt feel like class hasnt started properly. - Never miss class as in actually listen dont zone out -study the portion you learned in class on the day you learned it or atleast with in two days. -Put in atleast 3 hrs minimum every day on the evenings(this is out of the free time at day time when you dont have class) may be except sundays -use your free time tewat wey keseat class kelele hit the library i cant stress this enough -lastly i always took a nap after i got home or dorm before dinner like an hour or two and then coffee and then i was set for atleast 8 seat lelit and dont do adar and do this instead. Its never worth it
