Physics Major with 3.6 GPA recruiting SA 2028

As the title says, I’m a physics major with a 3.64 GPA recruiting in this upcoming cycle. My GPA is low due to packing my schedule with high level math and physics courses freshman year. I will be recruiting with some internships in PE/VC and a boutique IB internship under my belt. I am targeting a wide net of MM/EB/BB for SA 2028. My updated transcript for fall semester will come late December. I am taking a lighter load of general electives in the fall to bump my GPA above a 3.7, but for applications that open before December, how do I not get my resume thrown out with a lower GPA? Any advice is appreciated.
