I pray to God that you're trolling because if this is true you are absolutely screwed and this is an error you 100% deserve to be screwed for...

Application Form Grades - Background Check - Am I screwed? Seeking advice whether to contact HR! (Originally Posted: 03/01/2016)

Would appreciate any quick reply since I want to handle this issue as soon as possible. Thanks a lot!!
Bro you really fucked this up, bad.
I'd call the MD immediatley, leave a message if he doesn't pick up

^ that was sarcasm, you are fine. Don't do anything stupid.

I am tempted to let you run off and cut your own head off, but I've been where you are so I've taken the time out to write this up.
1) If you have gotten an offer, it means the group has okay'ed you. This group spent probably about 100 man hours on recruiting, and whittled a pool of 1000's down to about 5. You are one of those 5. The MD has said yes. The VPS have said yes. The HR (which you believe to be outsourced) will not influence this decision at all. The type of thing they are looking for is, "Is he actually in the school/graduation date he said he was?" and probably more likely, "Does he have any felonies/crimes involving financial dishonesty?"
2) You never lied. According to your story, you filled out the application to the best of your ability. Be confident in this.
3) What do you think calling them would accomplish? Take a deep breath. I understand this is literally the biggest thing to ever happen to you (which I mean seriously, if you are anything like me your friends / family won't understand what a big deal this is). But, you have the offer. You won. It's over (kind of, for a few weeks at least)
4) Everyone lies on their resume / interview. Especially if you consider this (a situation where they imply your GPA rather rather than ask you for it) as a lie.
TLDR; Congrats, calm down.
Don't worry about it - if they find a small discrepancy they will give you a call and chance to rectify. for some grades I cant see them bothering. Rejections will only be where you have a undeclared criminal record / lied about what uni you went to or something else that may not pass the fit and proper test,
