This is an incredibly stupid question, but I'm going to ask it anyways

When you list your school and GPA on your resume, could you do something like this to get it past the software screening? I am assuming that they only scan for basic numbers and do not update the natural language processing software on a regular basis since that could be extremely costly. I'm sure the HR Department would take one look at it, probably be pissed that you pulled a stunt like this, and then throw out your resume regardless. Something formatted like this:

XYZ College - ABC Business School
Cumulative GPA: 4.00 minus zero point four equals three point six (which is my GPA)

Remember, I warned you that this was going to be a stupid question.
