Difference between GPA when submitted/GPA when interviews start - I put down a 3.4 on my resume

So basically, I put down a 3.4 on the resume when I had applied which was my GPA at the time. This semester, a teacher made a mistake about my grade and has given me an F in one of my classes. I'm in the midst of the appeal process to get the grade that I deserve in the class. My question is... will the 2 bb's I'm interviewing for...I have one superday scheduled and a first round at another bank....will they look at my new 3.2 GPA and think that I tried to lie since I had a 3.4 previously? Or does the bank take into account that my cum gpa has changed since the time I submitted my resume? I'm like totally paranoid right now... any clarity on the issue would be appreciated ...thanks

They will probably have your transcript so they may think you lied.  However, carefully explain your situation.  I would also be prepared for the question, "Why did you get an F in that class?"  An F looks really bad so make up any kind of story to help your case.
