Which GPA should I put on my resume?

I am going to be applying to SA IBD positions soon, mainly in the NYC offices. My semester grades came out and my gpa dropped form a 3.59 to a 3.52.

Can I just leave my old GPA on there when I apply and just say I forgot to update my resume if they bring it up? Or is there really not that much of a big difference between the two gpa's to take the risk?

 

There really isn't enough of a difference for it to matter so you might as well change it.
