I'm doing a one-year MA program in economics at the same university where I did my undergrad. I had a 3.80 undergrad GPA, and I just received my first letter grade in my graduate program which is a B+. Even if I get A's in my other classes, my GPA will still be lower than my undergrad GPA. Will it make me look bad when applying for jobs to have a grad GPA that is lower than my undergrad GPA? I know I can work hard and try to do better next quarter, but I am starting job-hunting soon and employers will only see my first quarter's grades. I think I'm sounding silly here but I'm kind of worried. Thanks.
