barb dwyer, Good job! Your GPA is very important! Your high GPA might qualify you for some scholarships. If it hadn't been for scholarships I couldn't have graduated from college! It's also important after you graduate and start applying for employment. With your high GPA you might qualify for some professional internships,and will help you be among the first group of people to be employed for other jobs, as well. Plus it helps you with other benefits, also!
