1 year. Shit does not matter once you're in the real world
3.9 keep or remove? That's inches btw
3.6 + heavy quant major + top 20 = not stellar
Man, I hate this world 🙄
No one cares after youve landed a job in big4
DD1 - Love that subtle brag
3 years. Longer if it's good
1 year
Ditto BA2, GPA is a pretty worthless measure when evaluating. But if you force me, I'll take an engineer with a 3.0 over any biz degree with a 3.7 any day of the week.
b-schools do
P1 - Bschools care but that's why you have a separate resume for applications
After 1 year not really needed on a standard resume
If it's good, list it. If not, don't. MBB will always care. Finance firms will always care.
How low was your gpa
I'd say 1 year. Your resume is your story, so if the GPA helps tell a good story, keep it. If not, remove it 👍🏼
Zero
GPA was a 3.6 & heavy quant major from a top 20 ranked university (so not that stellar) if that helps
Following. 3.5 gpa from top 20 University as well.
Companies coming out of business school also care
I never put my GPA as it wasn't flattering. Still keep my GMAT though and have no plans to remove it. Showcase your strengths and mask the concern areas.
lol P2 read my mind
The real advice is to network like hell and get asked to apply. I don't even look at GPAs when I am interviewing candidates just the degree. Most STEM majors use the same few books across the nation regardless of university so I know what they have been taught from. It's recommendations from colleagues that I really look for in applicants.
