So basically, I put down a 3.4 on the resume when I had
applied which was my GPA at the time. This semester, a teacher made a mistake
about my grade and has given me an F in one of my classes. I'm in the midst of
the appeal process to get the grade that I deserve in the class. My question
is... will the 2 bb's I'm interviewing for(S&T...not IB) ...I have one
superday scheduled and a first round at another bank....will they look at my
new 3.2 GPA and think that I tried to lie since I had a 3.4 previously? Or does
the bank take into account that my cum gpa has changed since the time I
submitted my resume? I'm like totally paranoid right now... any clarity on the
issue would be appreciated ...thanks

Just speaking from a students perspective; it probably doesn't matter since your grades came out after you submitted your resume. You weren't dishonest.
from my past internship experiences, the firms will not look at your official transcript hence your official updated gpa until after they've hired you and they're doing all the background checks. so as long as you "correct" that F between now and the time that you're actually hired, you'll be fine. so for now, just concentrate on acing the interview and getting the job

I have a query pertaining to this issue as well. When I submitted my resume, I stated I was a math major and a finance major but I dropped the math major afterwards cause I didn't like it anymore. I did however take courses to show that I was on track for a math major? Will that make much of a difference?
No difference godofsmallthings.
