GPA Rounding Question

Hi,

I recently received a referral for an SA position for 2024 and am wondering whether it would be safe or rather worth the risk to bump the GPA on my resume from 3.4 to 3.5, seeing as it seems to be considered by most. as the "floor" for GPA. Part of my concern to do so is that I'm at a non-target, but I also am on my third internship right now as a sophomore and have leadership positions in ECs, in case that helps to balance out the eyesore of a GPA, even with Math & Econ majors.

Thanks so much for any help.

Also sending out my resume to boutiques so wondering how much it would matter for that as well if the insight is different.
