Is a 2.54 CGPA good?

With the national average GPA around 3.0, a 2.5 GPA is definitely not a good CGPA. A 2.5 GPA basically means that you’ve only scored C-s and D+s in your junior high coursework so far. Such low grades might hamper your admission to colleges. The average GPA for college applicants is more important than the national average. 

Here is how your 2.5 CGPA will affect you in various stages 

Freshman: A 2.5 GPA will make it difficult for you to secure admission to many four-year institutions. Your primary focus should be on how to make the most out of your grades and improve them. Here are a few ways to improve your grades 

• Take only a few challenging courses and keep your academic palettes as light as possible.
• Working constantly on assignments that you are weak on 
• Make your course load as light as possible by taking as few challenging courses as possible.
• Ask your tutor to evaluate and review your progress regularly.

Sophomore: As a sophomore 2.5 CGPA isn’t much of an issue though your college options might get limited. It’s good that you still have the rest of your junior year to improve your GPA.
