As it is one grade point off and most likely a typo (and only one mistake), I really don’t think this will be an issue.Hello, looking for advice from anyone who's experienced a similar problem or a grad rec member. I was re-reading some VS applications I sent in for this cycle and realised I made a mistake inputting one of my uni module grades (wrote 69% instead of 68%— although it does not affect my overall grade). I realise that this looks sloppy at best and ill-intended at worst but have decided nonetheless to email grad rec for each firm confessing my mistake so as to avoid any future complications. How likely am I to get rejected off the bat for such a mistake?
If you are either at face to face interview stage or have an offer, then flag the discrepancy at the earliest opportunity, but if you are waiting to hear back on a decision on your application, I would just wait until the firm comes back to you and if you are invited to interview, then flag it to the recruitment team.
