Difference between major and cumulative GPA

If there is a significant difference between my cumulative GPA (3.3) and major GPA (3.7) will BBs look down on this during recruiting season? Should I just list major? Or put it in bold on my resume?

 

Agreed, major before cumulative/overall. If you're a highly quantitative major, say, a physics or math major, and your overall is lower than your major GPA, I'd say they'd look favorably upon that. Similarly for moderate difficulty majors like economics and biology. But certainly not for easy majors like political science or anything ending in "studies." M&I has comments on this, I believe.

GPA Excluding Freshman Year:

not a single cuulative GPA was listed that day

The difference between successful people and others is largely a habit - a controlled habit of doing every task better, faster and more efficiently.
 

Given the drastic differences, I'd just list your major G.P.A. Some places will drop you once they find out your real GPA, but that's better than getting rejected pre-interview.
