term gpa vs cumulative gpa

hi guys,

i am a sophomore at a semi target for IBA SA 2025. I have a cumulative gpa of 3.50, and a term gpa of 3.59, I was wondering is it okay to use my term gpa on my resume and applications? If it asks cumulative, then obvio will put the cumulative

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.
