100% have lied about my gpa and being on dean's list at a top university. I think it's waaaay too ballsy and risky to lie that you went somewhere you didn't, but if they can't check something like that (or never would) I think it's fair game. Particularly if you feel like you DESERVED the 3.5 and the real number would throw a wrench into things. The thing is you have to be able to back up your claims with talent, even if not proof in the form of a hard copy.
Noone would validate a thing like that. They simply don't care. In companies like these, only skills matter. Not your college grade.
I think there no issue in a lie like that, especially if you have talent that supports the lie. just don't do something too obvious like saying you got a Master's when you didn't.
I was asked if I was familiar with a certain program, said yes, and then went home and learned how to use it. That was my first job. I haven't had to lie since.
