gpa & transcripts
when a company asks for a transcript & a resume, should you still round your GPA to one digit even though the number on the transcript is 2 digits? or would the company consider those two numbers different and ding you automatically?
I thinking rounding up is understood. If you are concerned you might want to contact HR and just give them a heads up. Never can be to cautious I suppose.
Rounding is fine, as long as by "rounding up" you aren't rounding a 3.41 to a 3.5
Calling a 3.451 a 3.5 shouldn't cause too much trouble.
Rounding a 3.41 to 3.50 is going a bit too far...I would say if your GPA is 3.45 or above, then maybe.
Just be honest. You don't want to freak out once your employer starts doing background checks on you.
any number but the real number is an exaggeration. what's up with these kids try to play their gpa numbers and fudge their transcripts?
Just write the real thing...especially if they have your transcript.
I personally believe that if you have a 3.45-3.49 then you shouldn't write 3.50. If you're going to round at all, you should write 3.5.
The last digit is misleading.
just to clarify i have 3.x7 and wrote it as 3.y but my unofficial transcript says 3.x7, so im following proper rounding and not writing 3.y0. has anyone else doen this?
