Suggestions of Career/Resume?

Hi all, I'm now a first-year student in UTSC BBA&HBSC Coop program with a cGPA of 3.45 (hopefully I can get a 3.5+ after this summer) and a Major GPA of 3.56. I have completed a 4-month internship at a search fund. I'm now considering to find a coop internship in IB/PE industry in Canada starting this winter. It seems like I am only possible to get into some boutique IBs with such a poor GPA.

Could you please provide some suggestions about my career path, where should I start my first coop term, and/or some advices about my resume? Any kind of help will be welcomed. Thank you for your support.Resume
