    Hay folks,

    I'm just wondering would anybody have any Idea, how the over-all GPA of a ab-initio Degree is calculated in Ireland, and do modules from first and second year carry less weight, than third and fourth year? not getting much information on this matter, on-line or from my college website. Just trying to figure out what I need to improve my GPA for next year, which will be my third year.

    mmmm another keyboard warrior, asks me one of the oldest rhetorical riddles in the world, look if you don't have a clue, how to answer my genuine question, then jog on. I take my studies very seriously, and work like a machine to achieve good grades.

    We'd need to know what university you attend, since there are several that don't use GPA at all. Also what course you take, as courses frequently weight their years and modules differently.

    None of the supplied information has any relevance to the actual question at hand : \ If you actually spent more time researching properly, you might get an answer to this question. How do you expect the general populace to know anything about your obscure GPA related question? Take it to the people that implement and enforce these policies not the Internet at large. A time and a place and all that jazz.

    These rules are clearly defined in the course document relevant to your specific course. Look them up.
