The largest employer in town, Acme Dynamite, is interviewing candidates, hoping to hire a few hard workers. While Acme does not require students to submit a transcript with their applications, the hiring officer believes that high GPAs signal a willingness to work hard. Jordan is a recent graduate and is applying for a job with Acme. Jordan's GPA is 3.3. Should Jordan include a transcript with her job application?

• A)No, because it is not required.
• B)Yes, because if she does not, Acme will infer that her GPA is 3.0 or lower.
• C)No, because her GPA is not much better than average.
• D)No, because it will make Jordan look worse relative to those with higher grades.
