Answer 1

4.0 is an A, 3.0 is a B, so 2.27 is just above a C average. There's nothing wrong with a C average...unless you're trying to get an academic scholarship or get into a world-class school like Harvard or Yale.
If the courses you took are very hard (like Calculus or Advanced Russian), that will help to compensate for a low GPA. So would a high class ranking (top 5% of your class) or a really good SAT score.
