What if the needed GPA is above 4.0?

Your target is not achievable with that many credits. Take more courses or adjust your target.

How can I raise my GPA faster?

Take more credits with high grades, retake low-grade courses if your school allows grade replacement, and focus on achievable A grades.

No. If your school allows grade replacement, your effective current GPA changes. Recalculate with the adjusted GPA.
