You don't really give us much to work with, so it is really hard to know if it would be worth it, to you. However, it would be a substantial upgrade.
Compared to the iPad 3, the new iPad is smaller, lighter, has a fingerprint sensor, has a brighter screen, has a much faster processor, has 2 GB of RAM compared to the 1GB in your iPad, and has better front and back cameras. It also has newer WiFi antennas, which will support much faster WiFi speeds. It should be a huge improvement for you. It may or may not have more storage, depending on the storage of your current iPad (which had a maximum of 64GB) and if you buy the 32GB or 128GB iPad.
Whether you feel it is worth it depends on how you use your iPad, particularly if you might do more with your iPad if it had better capabilities. It also would depend if the iPad is good enough, or if you don't mind paying the extra $270 for an iPad Pro with the extra features.
