Default GPA higher than reported

So as I waited over 4 months to get a transcript I put low GPA in as a placeholder. Got the invite and my real GPA is higher than reported and I'm worried this will be an issue. Does anyone have any experience with this?

It’s a positive change and easily justifiable. They ask about any changes when you first sit down in the panel interview. Tell them about what happened and they’ll have you line-out/initial the change. You’ll never hear anything else about it.

You had to know it was bad do-do when Congress exempted themselves in the beginning.

Happened to me with my college GPA. Seems the university went back after I graduated and adjusted grades due to an instructor's warped grading system over two years in my major. Added a nice bump so I went in and changed it.

You have until 3 days before your interview to make adjustments to your application before it is frozen. On that date they print it and compare the printout to the version when you were initially offered the interview. Any changes could be called out for you to defend during the interview. They mentioned my change, I told them why, and one remarked, "Much better for you to adjust it up at the last minute, vs down."

If it's inside the 3 days you can request at the beginning of the HR interview that you need to make a change and they'll have you hand write in the change.

Also still waiting….was hoping it would come before my start date with the other guys but no dice

Stupid question, but what is passing for the cognitive portions of the AON? I’ve been using CUT-E online practice tests but not knowing what benchmark we’re trying to hit has my anxiety pegged. I also got a 12/21 Top Tier email and am waiting on an assessment invite.

Also, thanks to all those who are sharing their experiences with the group. These forums are awesome for crowdsourcing information.
