Egregious race trolling? Or a very, very poorly thought out humblebrag? If the latter, then your 3.1 kinda ruined that.

I'm confused. What is your problem? A low GPA? How does anyone on here fix this for you?

What exactly do you wish to receive advice on? Getting a firm job? Getting a job overall?

There are SO many threads here for 3L job-searching and a 1 big one at the top of the forum. 3.1 isn't a death sentence. It is what it is, so all you can do now is hustle hard.
