How to improve GPA? Advice needed

[mayerofcanada]

Hi all,

 

I've completely finished my degree at UBC. My total GPA is 3.83 (on OMSAS scale, conversion decreases GPA) and 88.3% at UBC, with AGPA, when applying to UBC, I have an 89% GPA. I'm also IP for UBC.

 

I was wondering what to do to improve my GPA? I've finished my degree, I haven't been in school for roughly a year (currently on a gap year). I interviewed at one school this year was rejected. 

 

Should I do a second degree? Retake courses? Do a Masters (GPA boost for UofT)? Do I have a good shot at UofT? I don't think I get the wGPA boost because I did co-op... 

 

Thanks!

How many credits do you have making up your 89% GPA?

You are more likely to benefit from improving your non-academics. GPA is less likely to be the reason you don't get to the interview stage.
