Non-target from large state school at a top BB/EB group interested in on-cycle MF/UMM PE Recruiting. Would a 3.7 GPA be enough given that I'm at a top group? Also have perfect/near perfect SAT, ACT, and GMAT.

Stop freaking out you’ll be fine
MF is always a shit show so don't get too caught up in a point of GPA here or there, but if your group consistently places there you have a shot. The 3.7 should pass just about every GPA screen, but just for extra points I'd put the perfect test score on your resume as well (I wouldn't have more than 1 test score so pick your best)
