GPA Questoin
I'm applying for SA positions in IBD and S&T at BB's. My cumulative GPA is 3.76. However, Ive gotten 4.0s the last two semesters. I'd like to note this fact on my resume. How should I go about doing it? Should I insert a line after cumulative GPA with the label "GPA (Spring09-Fall09): 4.0"
Or should I do something else?
On another note, do BB's differentiate between GPA's beyond 3.7? For example, if 2 people with same major and from same caliber school both apply for same position at a BB, would a 3.9 be at an advantage over 3.7? My viewpoint is that after a certain threshold(generally a 3.7?), GPA does not matter anymore and the recruiters look for other factors in resume (experience, EC's, etc.). Is this a correct assessment?
3.76 is a strong gpa. There's no need to state you received a 4 the last two sems. And yes, your assessment is correct on gpa vs experience (except that the threshold might even be lower)
Your GPA is solid. No need to try and make it look even better. The GPA is just a threshold to get the first round interview. A 3.76 will not hold you back from anything. The analyst looking at your resume will just check off the gpa box and move on to look at your experience. Then it's your job to study up and kill the interview.
Ok, can I round 3.76 to 3.8?
