How to Raise Your CGPA at Punjab University

๐Ÿ”

Repeat Weak Courses

At PU, repeating an F or D grade course replaces the original grade in your CGPA calculation. A single course upgrade from F (0.0) to B (3.0) in a 3-credit course can lift a 2.5 CGPA by ~0.08 points over time.

๐Ÿ“Š

Load Heavy on Credits

CGPA is a weighted average โ€” more credit hours dilute the impact of past bad semesters. Taking a high credit-hour semester (21 CH) and scoring 3.8+ can shift your cumulative average significantly faster than light semesters.
