I've enrolled in courses this summer and now its too late to drop them. I'm struggling to get offers with my only experience being a research position. I'm thinking of going to grad school so I don't need a full-time offer anyways. What's the worst thing that could happen if I got an internship? I'd lie by saying I still had a semester left. People retake courses to boost their GPA despite having completed their required credits right?

depending on the company yeah you can fake it, mine didn't check

#

Mine didn't even check I graduated or anything

#

but why would you do that if you can just apply to entry level positions

I majored in AI so I'm looking for AI/data sci jobs

#

But without at least a masters its tough and I don't know a lot of the tools/frameworks they use

#

But they do seem to take on undergrad interns

Sure but in this case it's hardly immoral. I just messed up my course scheduling.
