Is it worth arguing a grade back to graduate with a 3.46 vs 3.47 GPA for PE recruiting?
Working at a good industry group at a decent MM group. I’m a graduated senior and I can argue a grade back to change my cumulative GPA up .01. I round up to 3.5 on my resume. Is this worth the effort? I’m interested in recruiting for PE, anywhere from MM-MF and also lateraling as a career banker if I enjoy it. Curious to hear thoughts.
MM bank* also graduated from a target (not HYPS) in a double economics and polisci majors. In NYC also.
If you round up anyways, then probably not worth the hassle it would take. I had a similar situation this year and just let it be
Do you think it’ll ever be an issue?
Nah. Unless they’ll want to see a transcript. But if you’re at a job already out of school, I’ll doubt they’ll want to. For me, it wouldnt have really helped at all
Got it. I have a similar issue as OP and was also wondering this. Might shoot an email to my prof just to see how easy it would be for me. But looks like it’s not worth it anyways.
I am honestly saying this as advice, so I hope you don’t take it the wrong way.
Asking this question, and actually wondering whether that matters is more concerning than the 0.01 on your GPA. I don’t know you, so I’m making a big leap here, but being able to distinguish big deals from small, where to spend your time, and how to get the best ROI on your time/work is critically important in this field. What I’m saying is that you should be able to know that this won’t matter one bit and that your energy and time is much better spent elsewhere (it isn’t that you shouldn’t care about details, it’s that you need to know what details matter); you are going to be analyzing every small decision if you can’t develop that thinking.
Anyway, I wouldn’t spend my time on this, it won’t matter. And hopefully I’m just jumping way ahead to conclusions, but in the off chance that you worry about stuff like this, I would work on that.
