Thanks for the advice earlier. I put some more effort into it and pumped out what I think is a little better. Let me know what you think.

remove fluent in english
Thanks. I thought it might look strange with just Basic understanding of Spanish on there
I would prefer to write "Bachelor of Science in Business Administration" and then write when you started and finished your bachelor studies. You could probably cut down on the number of things listed under "interests" and if you could quantify somethings you did during your first jobs that would make the bullets better.
Either do 3.8 / 4.0 or 3.81 / 4.00 for your gpa
-Bullets are really weak. You have a TON of white space, which isn't normally a bad thing, but for you it is because your resume is so weak on content. Shrink the margins and write more. Quantify stuff, add extra lines...I dunno. I'd expand on your finance internship. You shouldn't be devoting as much writing to being treasurer of Sigma Chi (which everyone knows is kind of a bullshit job anyway) as a legit internship.
-How is "talking to parents" an actual project you've completed?
-Why do you have like six different interests?
-Why is Sigma Chi listed as both an interest/extracurricular and a leadership position?
Not trying to be a dick. This needs work though.
triplectz, no offense taken. Posted it on here because I understand it needs work.
I'm trying to work on quantifying things but with an AM internship its hard to say my market research led to x% return or my research project led to x more clients.
I tried to think of things I did as treasurer that involved communication and personal skills. Dealing with pissed off parents seemed like one of those things. You're right with treasurer being a pretty easy job which is why I wanted to figure out ways to make it seem as pertinent as possible. Do you recommend putting down how I broke down the budget?
Well I had my position listed in leadership experience than just as a campus activity. I'll remove it from activities.
In addition to the bullets being pretty weak on actual content, the verbs are terrible. "Worked" "Assisted" "Maintained" and "Communicated" are all minimally active verbs. You need to give people a sense of what you actually did and accomplished. Don't say "Assisted in construction of models" - say "Constructed/Built/Designed models." It's not a lie. If you helped build it then you can say you built it - you don't need to point out that you weren't the only person whose hands touched the model, which is obvious.
Similarly "Creating charts from market data . . . " sounds just awful and very basic. Even if its (which is fine, its an internship), you gotta juice it up a little bit. Something like "Analyzed market data and condensed into meaningful trends and graphics for client presentations" or some BS like that.
^ I thank you.
Remove the line under your name, it looks awkward
What did you do during the summers of '11 and '12?
Originally an accounting major so my advisor stressed the need to graduate a semester early to be available for spring tax internships my senior year. Thus, in order to graduate early., I had to be a full-time student my first 2 summers. It's definitely hurting me now.
