Hi, could you please give me some advice and reviews on my CV? I know that I don't have work experience, but hopefully this summer I will work at a boutique VC. Thank you

  1. Remove test scores, ACT is low and it would only work against you
  2. Include language skills, I assume you learn italian, say it!
  3. Since you have a lot of empty space try to fill some space including something more about your high school experience; I think you should be able to include some extracurriculars
  4. Be more specific and try to include more numbers overall; you want to read "raised X dollars" instead than thousands;
  5. I don't like a list of interest, pick a few of them and say something more about them (favorite player, etc)
