The final grades? It's each semester grade that goes toward GPA. For example if you get an A semester 1 and a B semester 2 they both go toward your GPA. GPA is not quarter grades.

Read More »GPAs follow the same rounding rules as regular numbers, so anything at a 3.65 or above would be considered a 3.7 by colleges. You're not quite there right now, but you're close enough that slightly better grades as a junior would get you there. Likewise, you would need to raise your GPA to a 3.95 to bring it to a 4.0, or a 3.75 to bring it to a 3.8. As for how easy that is to do, remember, a GPA is an average, which means that the closer you get to an upper or lower boundary (4.0 or 0.0, respectively), the harder it will be to move it more in that direction. I'm going to do the math for you, but skip to the end if you want the short answer. To give an example, say you have six Bs and four As. GPA works by assigning a number to a letter grade, and then averaging those numbers—an A is a 4.0 (an A+ is actually a 4.3 which is the actual upper bound on a 4.0 scale, but only some high schools offer those), B+ is a 3.3, a B is a 3.0, a C is a 2.0, etc. So six Bs and 4 As = 6(3.0)+4(4.0) divided by 10 = 3.4 GPA. If I then add 3 As to that, we now have 6(3.0)+7(4.0) divided by 13 = 3.53—so we went up by .130. If I add 3 more As to that, then it's 6(3.0)+10(4.0) divided by 16 = 3.625—so we only went up by .095 even though we added the same number of As. Because we're getting closer to a 4.0, that means that you need progressively better and better grades to get big jumps in GPA. So as for your case, I can actually do this math for you—it's pretty simple. If you have a 3.648 cumulative GPA for your freshman and sophomore year, and you want at least a 3.75, then that means your junior year is going to be 1/3rd of that final GPA. So (2/3) x 3.648 + (1/3)(X) = 3.75. X here is the GPA you need in junior year. If we just do that algebra, then X = 3.96. That means you need at least a 3.96 GPA in your junior year to have a 3.75 overall—which means that that's about the highest you could bring your GPA up to, unless your school lets you get A+s (because a 3.96 is basically straight As). So it would be possible for you to get a 3.7 or, maybe, a 3.8. It's not mathematically possible for you to get anything higher than that on a 4.0 scale. Now for the actual college advice—a 3.7 or 3.8 are definitely fine for you to apply to schools like NYU, or even Ivies. A 3.7 is usually what I've seen to be the cutoff from working with students. But make sure you have strong safeties as well, and aim for a diverse array of schools—not just big private universities like NYU.

Read More »Over 0.5 goals in a match mean that 1 or more goals are required to win the bet, and 0 goals mean the bet loses. The over 0.5 goals market applies to 90-minute matches (plus additional time) but does not include extra time.
Firstly, the over/under goals markets are popular betting markets that cover the total number of goals in a match (both teams). Over/under 0.5 goals is the lowest number you can bet on in these traditional markets, and the bets typically increase by one goal such as over/under 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, etc. In the over/under goals markets, there is no possibility for a draw or refund, which is what the .5 decimal means. As a team cannot score half a goal, there is no possibility for a draw or refund on these bets, you either win or lose. One of the most popular goals markets for betting is the over/under 2.5 goals markets, as it is often priced around evens. If you are looking for the best over/under 0.5 goals betting odds, we recommend checking out our betting margins guide as we test which betting sites offer the lowest margins (highest odds).
Finally, when the dealer's up card is a fair one, 2 or 3, the player should stop with a total of 13 or higher. With a soft hand, the general...
