PLEASE HELP | I am stupid - might lose BB summer offer

I have just realized I have made a mistake in the application form for a BB summer internship. I wrote a higher final mark than what I actually got and just realized. What a stupid.

Still have not done the interview yet, but would this impact negatively my potential offer? Can I simply state via email the correct score? Or will HR look at the application form if the two correspond?

I have been asked via email to submit the exact final mark and I also know that this final mark is not listed as a criteria to apply.

Please, help me

No I did not indicate it. 

You just had to pick up a slot (i.e. 91-100,81-90,71-80, 61-70) and incorrectly selected the slot below

 

But I haven't. My mark simply is the very end of a slot and considered in the slot after without looking carefully. 

 

Is not a lie. It is not even considered one of the listed criteria.

I just, as explained above, incorrectly indicated a mark that was supposed to go in another slot. 

If I got 80/100, I realized I incorrectly indicated in the slot 81-90 instead of 71-80

When is the last time someone made a thread about “accidentally” representing themselves as worse than reality rather than better than? 

I’m almost ambivalent about you lying on your materials. This is poor form, but I’ve already assumed the worst. But insulting my intelligence by describing your fuckery as an “accident” is INFURIATING and makes me demand the electric chair  

 

If this is in US or UK, I would worry more about improving your written English than “accidentally” putting a higher grade.
