Chronological Order of Resume

Currently a senior at a top 15 state school set to graduate in December. I'm currently applying for jobs and have sent out my resume but gotten no replies. I've had four RE related internships throughout college. In chronological order, my first internship was at a local tenant rep firm, second as a summer analyst at a reputable brokerage (think CW, HFF, CBRE), third as an intern at a mom & pop IS brokerage, fourth as an intern at a primary market development shop. My last internship had me doing b**** work and I've found it hard to list my responsibilities on my resume as more than a receptionist. As it stands, this past internship is at the top of my resume. Should I rearrange the order of my internships from chronological to relevancy? I feel like hiring managers take one look at the top of my resume, see this last internship and think I have zero experience in RE, when in reality I've done hundreds of hours of modeling and analysis through past internships & certifications (REFM, Excel).

Just looking for some insight and tips on beefing this resume up!
