Didn't do so well in introductory Finance course
So I just finished my introductory finance course in university (Financial Management I) with a B. Will this mark make a big impact applying for internships? I have a 3.7 overall gpa and have completed various certifications here in Canada (Canadian Securities Course, Excel Certification, Bloomberg).
No one will care, when I was at my old firm and had some involvement in the first round of resume screening I looked at school, GPA, major and internships I had no idea what individual class grades were and couldn't have care less.
Take some modeling courses and BIWS "excellence in excel" - that will be much more valuable.
No one is going to give a fuck. Very few firms require an unofficial transcript, and I think it's just assumed that if you have a good GPA/seem smart, you're more than capable. You're not doing rocket science.
Although, if you're getting solid B/CS in finance classes for the rest of your time in school, you might want to reevaluate if finance is for you. Like I said before, it's really not rocket science and most people get an occasional bad grade, but not doing well over a long period in classes that are pretty easy isn't a great sign.
