Improvment Plan
In Bahria, your overall grade for one subject is divided into four main categories, as illustrated in the graph.
For Low Scoring Students
If your grades have not been satisfactory, focus your
efforts on two key areas:
Assignments
A useful hack is to ensure you upload EVERY assignment.
Instructors often don't have time to review every submission from all students,
so uploading all assignments — even if they are done poorly — can still earn you a decent grade.
To maximize your scores,
put extra effort into the first and last assignments,
as these are more likely to be downloaded and closely reviewed by instructors.
Finals
Even if you struggled throughout the semester, remember
that only 50% of your final grade is based on the semester's
performance; the remaining 50% depends on the one day that
is your final exam.
For High Scoring Students
If you are already maintaining a good GPA (above 3.00), congratulations! It requires significant effort to achieve this, and your hard work is commendable. Continue to focus on assignments and finals, but also pay attention to quizzes and midterms, as they can further enhance your grade.
However, grades are not everything. I encourage you to seek out life experiences and professional experiences. Visit the international office in Quaid Block for exchange programs, create a LinkedIn profile, attend job fairs if you’re in your 5th or 6th semester, and focus on gaining new experiences.
For Underperforming Students
If you are on probation or at risk of it,
1- Choose your subjects wisely by consulting the
prerequisite list.
2- Opt for a few special classes because instructors
are generally more lenient there, but dont take special
classes in place of a subject that might create a
backlog in the future.
3- Consider making friends with high achivers and
instructors (lifting karain).
And if none of these work, its not the end of the
world, mentally prepare yourself for a 9th semester
after the usual 8, theres light at the end of even the
darkest tunnels, good luck!
Lastly, make friends with your seniors, they know how the university works better then you do.
