You should list the specific relevant courses rather than just saying accounts/finance. Is your major GPA higher than your overall? If so I would list it then.

 

Unfortunately my major GPA is a below a 3.0 and that is bringing my overall GPA down. There was a semester that killed me and I thought about changing majors, but now I decided to just focus on getting a 4.0 and bringing that up.

I realize that my GPA is killing me and I am definitely looking at other finance positions. Thanks for the comments. Anything else?

 

One semester on dean's list (3.83 GPA) and mediocre sat - not worth mentioning.

Also, how can I list two important courses that I'm taking this semester: intermediate financial accounting and financial management.

 

I am gonna get heat again, but how bout just rounding the GPA up. 3.2 is almost a B+ which isn't horrible. If you do some networking and explain how it was one bad semester, but you are now turning it around then it should be fine.

 

why don't you try 3.2/4.0 (rounding up)? instead of 3.15/4.00?
