What school do you go to and what is your GPA?

Harvard University, and my GPA is just under 3.5 (I think 3.48-3.49 as it is)

Edit: I know a lot of investment banking firms have a minimum GPA cutoff, usually at 3.5, where candidates with GPAs below this point don't even have their resumes reviewed by recruiters due to the sheer number of people applying. Is this going to be a big problem as first semester grades won't be in until late January / early Feb.

Go to all the ass kissing events in the fall. You'll probably have a hard time landing a job at a bulge bracket (although the Harvard stamp will help a lot) but you should be able to get a job as an investment banker at a middle market firm.
