If I ended my freshman year with a 3.8 unweighted, can I somehow get it to a 4.0 unweighted or is it too late?

Im a sophomore by the way!! I know that your freshman year is important for building gpa so I wasn’t sure if I’m able to come back from that 3.8

Hi there! I'm pretty sure the highest you could get is like a 3.95 or something like that, but seeing as GPA is cumulative, a perfect 4.0 would not be possible, but a 3.8 unweighted is still great, so I wouldn't stress about it too much.
