SA Resume Review - Junior at non-target

Hey this is a throwaway account since I'm posting my resume,

I'm a junior at a non target top 40 (Businessweek) school and will be applying for SA this year. Recruiting at my school is not great, but I'd expect to get between 2-5 SA interviews. I have pretty good experiences and a passable GPA. Any help or advice on it would be great, I think some of my bullet points could probably be better.

Thanks for the help.

Honestly, if you're Vikram Pandit, I don't even know why you're bothering with SA recruiting. Don't you already have a really sweet job right now? I know there are more prestigious banks, but to go from CEO of Citigroup to SA at GS/MS/JPM/etc. seems a bit over the top!

Also, I don't understand why you didn't list your tenure at Citigroup on your resume. If you're determined to get a SA position at a better shop, I'm sure your experience at Citi will help you!

You'll still have to network though...
