IB SA Recruiting

What do you think about making an ER paper of a publicly traded company and attaching it to my resume and networking emails? Including a summary, industry analysis, financial analysis and a DCF model.

Target school finance major, 3.7 GPA and great test scores but still unsure about the next recruiting season.

Or does it make me look like a no-life hardo? Looking for a banker's opinion here but all advice welcome of course.
