I was not expecting to have to start applying so early in the summer, I kind of wanna finish a project that I feel would be a good asset for my cv but the start date for applying is today/may 4th. Should I take a a day or two to do the project and then start applying? Do they really care for early applicants? I feel my cv is pretty weak otherwise except a 3.6 gpa. Speaking of applying early might save me from having a weaker gpa when more of my grades come in...
