My gpa fell to a 3.0. I was working multiple jobs in college and had one really bad semester due to a traumatic event I went through. What are the chances the firm revokes my offer during a pandemic?

Firm will not revoke your offer. You’ll be fine.

I don’t think anyone actually reviews the transcript that you upload

Ohh damn. I guess my office is just desperate for people. I haven’t heard of that happening

you’d have to do some real extreme shit to get an offer rescinded - a lot worse than a 3.0

Pretty low I’d say. I got my co-op offer with an 8.5 GPA out of 10, and the semester before starting I got a 6 out of 10, and no one even looked at it or knew

Probably translates to having like a 3.8 average then getting a high 2 or maybe 3 flat for that semester

As long as you pass with the credits required to sit for the cpa, that’s all that matters.

Also if they do take issue with the drop (which I think is unlikely), you should tell them what you said above. Anyone with any compassion would understand

They only look at your transcript to make sure you graduated. I think they really only look at GPA if you apply for an internship.

My GPA dropped as well. It was never an issue.

I feel like I should just start applying for other jobs, to be safe. I have an excellent resume. But this is still very stressful

I had a 3.4 GPA when I got my offer and ended up around 3.2 after I got a D and C in my last two classes bc I was so burned out on school. Sent them my transcripts and assumed I had the job until I heard otherwise. That was a couple years ago so you're probably fine.

Also I didnt even have any reasonable reason why other than I spent all my time networking instead of studying to get the job

It will only become an issue 15 years from now when you’re up for partner.

If I were to buy the second home through an LLC, would that allow me to exceed that 750K since the expenses of the second home would be pass through expenses/income?
