Does my resume taste good?
I want to do banking. I am kind of worried that my previous experience does not really speak to that fully. Also I have not gotten feedback from anyone really, so I'm sorry if something is glaringly wrong.
Any and all genuine advice is appreciated.

You want to do banking? What does that even mean?
Your grades are great - 2400 SAT?! Yet you have 0 IBD experience.
I'm really confused by this.
I'm confused by your answer. I was under the impression that I didn't need IBD experience specifically to work in IBD. I wanted to cover more bases and explore different things before next year, and my interest in banking stems from readings and personal interest (books, constant reading, my courses). Can you or someone clarify please?
Banking? Wat. Why?
You know OCaml? Go to Jane Street. Or be an algo trader somewhere with your computer science/derivatives background.
I would dump all periods from the resume. just my 2 cents
No need to specify "superscore of two tests". Everyone does that.
I appreciate all the advice given here. But does my resume really pigeon-hole me into something quant/trading oriented? Am I just screwed for banking?
Not really. You are still qualified for banking. People here are wondering why in the flying fuck you would want to do banking when you are probably qualified for buyside roles straight out of undergrad that would put your programming skills to good use.
And not just us, but your interviewers will wonder the same thing and you better have a good answer.
Thank you very much guys for the useful information.
Target + finance major + great numbers + finance internship = in a very good shape
Good luck!!
