how are u eveyone??
Is it impossible to find a entry level job with no that good GPA (<3.0) and no internship experience even I have 1-3 exams pass??
It is because I just passed the P exam and I feel like the interviewer step back after they found out my GPA is below 3.0.
If I pass more exams, will it help??
I am kinda worried. Thanks for your help!!

Probably depends on *why* your GPA was low, and how well you conveyed that information to the interviewer.
FWIW, my GPA was just exactly 3.0 and I had no exams or internships and I found a job.

Do u think a good interview with couple exams pass can cover that disadvantage??

It must, because I was offered a job - solely based on the interview, I do believe!
