I recently advised a soon-to-be new grad (guaranteed a six-figure income) to not put her very high GPA on her CV. I told her that most want to hire a capable, normal and personable candidate. I told her that a great GPA is something of which to be proud but the odds are good that her supervisor won't have a GPA like hers. My advice was "certainly tell if asked but otherwise use it to do well and move up."

What would you say?
