<h2 class="apl-section-title">How did I go from not even trying to earning a 3.75 GPA in graduate school?</h2>
<p class="apl-section-lead">I did not apply myself in elementary school, middle school, or high school. When I decided to go to college, I had to learn how to become a student.</p>
<p>I earned a 2.5 GPA in my bachelor’s degree, but I kept learning. I studied psychology, motivation, behavior, learning, systems, and academic performance. By the time I completed my master’s degree, I had earned a 3.75 GPA.</p>
