Resume, is this education..?

Hey all! I know these are usually silly, but a few questions:

http://www.razume.com/documents/26803

-Is the shadowing I did "education?" It was at a reputable investment bank, but adding it to experience will make me have 5 different experiences (which I deem necessary). -The consulting project was for a legit firm, so I want to keep it. -Do most people combine personal interests and additional skills? I could do that to save space.

-If I am in a biz fraternity, is it an advantage? I almost feel like it could be looked down upon by someone in an opposing one.

Thanks!

Yes. Refer to M&I template.

Only if you were in one of the legit chapters (e.g. Stanford AKPsi or something) and your resume reviewer happens to know of it. Most of the time it's seen as resume padding. And I have yet to meet a person who takes the whole AKPsi/DSP rivalry seriously enough to let it get in the way of hiring a good candidate for the job, especially since one of them was created in response to the other, and there's practically no difference between the two.
Currently: future neurologist, current psychotherapist Previously: investor relations (top consulting firm), M&A consulting (Big 4), M&A banking (MM)
 

Why don't you make two resumes, one for consulting and the other for banking?
