Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Economics and Finance (IOSR-JEF) - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
A student or pupil is a learner or someone who attends an educational institution. In the United Kingdom, those attending university are termed "students" while "pupil" refers to an attendee of a lower educational institute; the same was typically true in the United States previously where student was considered a more lofty and ambitious title, one who was actively seeking knowledge, not just learning it because they were required to. In the United States, and more recently also in the UK, the term "student" is applied to both categories: school and university students. In its widest use, student is used for anyone who is learning, including mid-career adults who are taking vocational education or returning to university. A student’s GPA is often used to determine academic honors, such as honor roll, class rank. GPAs have been one of several major factors used by colleges, postsecondary programs, and employers to assess a student’s overall academic record and also it can be used to get a reputable career job in Medan. Grade point calculated at each end of the semester is used as a basis for knowing the success of learning all subjects that are followed in the semester.
