There is huge frustration among our college students about how to increase CGPA. However, it is not a matter of disappointment for a student because if they study properly, then this CGPA will be good.
So in today’s article, I will try to answer all the questions about CGPA and also share some of my experiences with you. Applying what you learn here in real life will increase your CGPA. So let’s start.
How to increase your CGPA for the next exam?
Stay positive, don’t stress too much!
My first suggestion is that you don’t stress too much. There are two reasons for this. Firstly, stress will not keep you focused on your studies. Secondly, stress will not improve your CGPA.
So you have to think practically, and ask yourself, “How can I score well?” If you work with such a state of mind, you must do well.
Understanding the Importance of CGPA
After forming the mental state, we need to understand why our CGPA is so important. I will talk about two sides here, but many people can argue about that. But in my opinion, these two are more effective, as I have observed in my life.
1. To enhance your academic profile, which will be useful in your higher education. This CGPA will be very useful if you want to get admitted to a reputed university. There you have to show this score to pursue a Master’s or Ph.D.
2. This CGPA will be very useful for your job. Good companies, though they relax in some cases, will often require it.
How to Increase CGPA at University
Understand the importance of CGPA, now I will discuss with you some practical tips that will be useful for everyone. I have used these tips in my student life and hope you will too. But you must do the work, do not be lazy. Let’s take a look one by one.
1. Give equal importance to all subjects
Many students emphasize two or one subject more than studying all the subjects of their course. In doing so, their results in other subjects become poor. This is one of the reasons for a low CGPA. My advice to you is to divide your time and finish your syllabus before the end of each semester for every subject. You will do it at least once, and you will not go outside of this rule.
2. Go through past question papers
You will not get the idea of questions from past question papers anywhere else. Many times, the questions may be repeated. Now the question is where do you collect these questions from? The best way is from your college office, where these can be obtained. You can also get them from many websites.
But I used to collect them from my upperclassmen. You can use this technique. But before that, you need to build a relationship with a good student. Then, he will help you a lot in this regard. Once the questions are collected, your task will be to analyze them deeply.
3. Adopt Effective Study Techniques
If you want to increase your CGPA, you need to follow good study techniques. If you study with the wrong technique, then you can assume you will not get a good CGPA. It seems like reading a lot but not getting effective results. You can read according to the SQ3R method. If you don’t know what it is, just google it.
4. Complete all your assignments on time
If you don’t finish all your college assignments on time, then you are behind. In that case, you can assume your CGPA will be low. What I used to do was finish all my assignments no matter how hard, and then go to sleep. It was difficult for me, but I managed to submit my essays on time. My professor is happy with me.

5. Attend all lectures
If you do not attend all the lectures in your class, you will fall behind. You will be enriched by the information you will receive in your class lectures. Also, it will be very useful to increase your CGPA. Remember, those who get a good CGPA never miss a professor’s lecture.
6. Attend all practical sessions
If you do not participate in all the practical sessions of your semester, then you can be sure that your CGPA will not be as expected. If you do this, the professor will be very upset, and his distance from you will increase. As a result, you will have a lower CGPA. So you have to attend every practical session a hundred percent and work.
7. Submit lab journals on time
Lab journals are very important in some subjects. And if you don’t submit these journals, you are likely to have a lower CGPA. I had many friends who didn’t get good results here due to negligence. So be very aware of it.
Final thoughts
Finally, if you follow the techniques or tips given by me above, your CGPA will be boosted. And those who are new students will surely have a better CGPA.
So I advise you to follow the above rules to increase your CGPA for your next exam. Because many of my students have achieved good CGPAs by following these. So hopefully you will do well if you follow.
