SBed, please take a look at the new resume please
List major GPA, if you're up for it take the BAT since it's free and online and will add Bloomberg to your experience.
Remove the Honors & Awards line, or list more awards. As it stands, you haven't earned enough honors and awards to warrant a line on your resume. (It's okay -- you're only a sophomore.)
In the relevant coursework line, write "Macroeconomics" and "Microeconomics." Write formally. Put a space in between the ampersand and "I" and "II."
Re-write the first bullet under your boutique internship to read: "Assisted in drafting, formatting, and updating marketing materials and management presentations."
Be consistent with periods at the end of bullets. FYI, most people don't use periods.
Under the take-private of the U.S. media company, remove "analysis resulted in valuation between..." You can explain your valuation in your interview. Don't waste space on your resume.
Same comment as above for EPS accretion.
For the third sub-bullet of the F500 tire company, I understand that you're trying to demonstrate prowess with Excel and finance, but you're overreaching. Nix the bullet.
For the first bullet under the PWM internship, I think you want to use "diversify" instead of "diversified." The former is a verb, and the latter is an adjective.
For the same bullet, "meets" should be "meet," "client's" should probably be "clients'," and "Made" should not be capitalized. In general, this bullet makes little sense. Its component parts seem unrelated, so perhaps you should consider splitting it into two bullets.
In the second bullet, change "generated" to "generating."
Re-word the first bullet under your school investment society section. Consider: "Researched and pitched stocks in the TMT and Natural Resources sectors; selected by peers to lead teach-in sessions for both sectors." Basically, explain what "educational" and "week-in-review" mean in layman terms. (I know what week-in-review is, but what is educational?) FYI, it looks like you have an extra space between "and" and "week-in-review."
Delete the second bullet. Split the first bullet into two if necessary.
Get rid of the club you started in high school. You haven't participated in it for a year and a half now, so you shouldn't have it on your resume. This is college. Get involved in activities at your school.
Remove the Certifications and Training line. If you're studying business, you don't need to prove that you know finance. That much is expected of you.
For the Activities/Interests line, "travelling" is the British spelling of "traveling." Delete the high school basketball item. Delete "Playing" (i.e., just say "Alto Saxophone").
Overall, you have a decent shell in place, but this resume still needs substantial work. Feel free to post an updated version if you want me to take another look.
SBed. I made most of the changes. I replaced HS club with a university club I am VP in but school clubs for the year hasn't started. Didn't change my school investment fund as I will make adjustments to it later. Please take a look if you have the time :)
