The interviewers want to know if you are satisfied with your current GPA or if you would change it if you could. Talk to the interviewers about your undergrad experience.
If you were satisfied with your GPA: 'I graduated top of my class with a 4.0 GPA and am very proud of my accomplishments during my undergraduate studies. The experience taught me to study hard and set attainable goals for myself.'
If you were not satisfied with your GPA: 'I feel that my GPA of 3.2 could have been higher. However, I was working full-time while attending classes. All in all, I did learn a lot about discipline and commitment.'
