Will my GPA change when I go to college?
I realize that it will depend on how I do in class, but in high school my GPA is usually in the 3.6-3.7 range. When I go to college will I have to try much harder to achieve this? Or will it be the same as high school?

You will start college with no GPA, until the end of the first semester; when you will begin to build on your GPA in college. The final grade will count toward your college GPA.
Your GPA will still be figured in the same way, for you to achieve a 3.6-3.7 gpa Mostly A's with some B's

High school and college level classes are not the same.
I have seen students who have had A's in HS, have a hard time in college.
reasons;
they never had to study much in HS. and now are at a lost as to how to study in college.
You need very good study skills, organization and time management skills to get through college.
They never took honors or AP classes in HS and now find college level classes a real challenge.
They went to a 'bad' HS. Unfortunately not all US high schools give the same level of education. WHich is why the SAT/ACT is important to colleges.
You need to be able to adapt and be willing to change your study habits to what will work in college. You will find more work with less time to get it done. You can find most of your grade in a class will be based on test scores. You will have a lot more writing to do in college. Each teacher controls their own class. So you need to figure out what each teacher wants from their students. what works in one class may not work in another.
