Yet Another Resume/BG Check question

Hey Guys,

Im new to this site, but I definitely love the info on it. I recently received an offer for a MM firm my soph summer and on my resume I usually like to not keep on it there because I have low GPA (2.6). I told them I have a 3.1 when I got interviewed because I expected it to be that while interviewing. But after this semester I got a 4.0, it will be roughly a 3.1. Will this be a problem since I have a 3.1 now? will they go by my transcript from after this semester or one before this semester is over? I have still not out the forms yet so keep that in mind.

Gracias Ross

My guess is no since 1) it's a MM firm 2) you're a soph intern 3) BG check company (if they outsource) will probably look at cumulative.

People tend to think life is a race with other people. They don't realize that every moment they spend sprinting towards the finish line is a moment they lose permanently, and a moment closer to their death.
 

No, you're fine.
