Resume Critique - Canadian Chimp seeking Internships

As resume (imgur link) below implies, no real finance experience. Interested in ER/PE/AM/HF/IB in that order. Please critique and don't go easy on me! Original: imgur.com/a/uSBpN2w Edit 1: imgur.com/a/hjaVi09 Removed subbullets, edited main bullets, created "stock market competitions" entry, "modified skills and interests", among others. Took 4 hours

I'm in third year. I have my graduation year, and I mention I'm in third year in my cover letters. I think you're right though, should mention that - probably gives me an advantage over younger years just at face value. GPA is omitted intentionally - it is below 3.0. Reddit source Sheets and Giggles said to omit anything below 3.3, which I think I will stand by. How would you elaborate on the stock market competitions? I chose the poker section over the stock market competitions because it demonstrates long-run, replicable skill (imo). I have been playing consistently and profitably for a long time, where as stock market competitions last a span of 2-3 months, and doesn't seem all that replicable to me. I have shortened the coursework to one line; it does seem gratuitous to have two.
