Should I list my grade as exactly 3.70 or should I just say it's "in progress" when cold emailing for freshman internships?

First semester didn't go as well as I hoped so I ended with a 3.70 on the dot. Should I just send out my resume with an "N/A in progress" gpa or should I list the 3.70? My high school and ACT are super strong so I'm just hoping to maximize my chances.  Any advice on what I should do in this case?

Definitely list your test scores as they can matter. Just put it next to your GPA.
