Currently have a 3.96 GPA, been stressed out lately and finals are killing me. Ive calculated that my GPA will drop to a 3.77.
How does this look in the eyes of a recruiter, and can it get my offer rescinded?

Probably he wouldn't even make it there once they noticed that he is such a loser.
I've said before many times here, as long as your GPA when you applied matches what the bank sees, you're fine.
