how to write education part of resume?

<p>If your a junior who transferred recently would you note your gpa on your resume as both GPAs from your old school and your new school …or just take an average?</p>

<p>for example i have a very good gpa at my old school but not 4.0, but at my new school I have only had a few credits and i have a 4.0, is it wrong to write 4.0 gpa ? would it look bad since i wrote it only having a few credits?..</p>

<p>4.0 would be misrepresentation…and they would find out anyways–I don’t know a single junior with a perfect GPA</p>

<p>since im running short of time I think ive decided to put my old schools gpa under my old school and my OVERALL college lifetime gpa under my new schools, instead of leaving it blank…that way i dont have to write in 4.00</p>

<p>but then this is still a misrepresentation, kind of? even though 4.00 > overall gpa? cant leave it blank i think…that might raise more questions than putting 4.0</p>

<p>You don’t want say you have a 4.0 in that situation.</p>

<p>However, taking a simple average rather than a weighted average would probably be ok.</p>

<p>You put the GPA from your old school next to that school, and the GPA from your new school next to that school.</p>

<p>I never put my GPA on my resume…</p>

<p>I was told that if your GPA is above a 3.0 you should put it on. Otherwise, they will assume it is really bad.</p>

<p>And honestly in terms of jobs, as long as your GPA isn’t terrible (ie: indicates you are are lazy) and you aren’t applying for consulting/ibanking type jobs, you should be fine.</p>
