my god do not put term gpa, at least without cumulative. This is a stupid risk for not alot of reward - imagine if someone's cumulative gpa was a 2.2 but they took an easy semester and got a 4.0, that is straight up lying. Also, if there is a gpa cutoff it is usually 3.3-3.5.
If they want the cumulative, always give the cumulative
Just use cum GPA it's a 3.5 to 3.6 so not that big of a difference lol
Cumulative GPA
