I just had a super day and accepted an offer with a BB (Non-NY) and I made my GPA .17 points higher (3.55 - 3.72) on my application. After the application, they asked for my unofficial transcript and I had to make one that matched with the GPA that I submitted.
Am I going to get the offer rescinded before or after the Summer Analyst Program? What should I do?

Why tf would you lie to begin with?
Because 3.5 from Semi-Target isn't competitive and I wanted the chance to interview
I couldn't get a single response from anyone using my real GPA from my school
play stupid games, win stupid prizes
Yeah, but now you’re a kid who lied. Once a liar, always a liar. Trust takes years to build and moments to break, kid.
Don’t take shortcuts in life. You’ll get something in the short term, but it’ll screw you in the long term.
Just submit your transcript for now and see what they’ll say.
If it doesn’t work out, keep recruiting. People break in later all the time with no junior internships. Don’t fuck your life up in a hurry because you see everyone else getting it.
Take this down ASAP
Forum won't let me
Can't you edit it?

How?
Can’t get calls with GPA.
-> Lie about GPA
-> Get the dream internship.
-> Firm finds out you lied.
-> Blacklisted.
The irony.
The odds of the firm finding about this post is higher than you think. Take it down by editing it. pray for the best, and dont do dumb shit again
