GPAガチ勢
의미: A student obsessively focused on achieving the highest possible GPA — a tryhard of grade point averages.
GPAガチ勢 combines the English academic abbreviation GPA with ガチ勢 (serious faction/tryhards), describing students who treat GPA optimisation like a competitive game. They always sit in the front row, never miss class, strategically choose 楽単 (easy courses) to pad their average, and submit assignments early. While sometimes admired for their discipline, they can also be seen as overly calculating or grade-obsessed rather than genuinely interested in learning.
