Quick Question Regarding GPA

Hi All,

I am helping a friend fix up his/her resume. The GPA is not high, ~2.5. However, the resume will not be for any IB/S&T spots...more for Operations/BO Finance/Whatever.

I am wondering if I should have him/her leave the GPA on with a 2.5 or get rid of it entirely.

I ask because I know some banks just straight up toss it out without a GPA, but a 2.5 would probably be a red flag as well. Some experience would be a Wealth Management gig at Merrill.

Again, this isn't for FO spots, so I am assuming it wouldn't be AS bad regardless.

Thanks in advance
