Quick glance - make sure the bullet points under your PWM gig are aligned correctly. Also, don't put a GPA in your new school if you don't have one yet.

Thanks, should I put N/A or something? I just dont want to draw any negative attention

Don't think you need such a huge block of text under the small IB position. No one is going to read all that.

Thanks, what do you suggest? I have only been working at this new place for several weeks, and its two days per week. I dont have much else to say about it. I think the summer job is the centerpiece of my resume right now

Good experiences overall with decent GPA. The only minor problem will be "on-campus leadership." Limit to 2-3 bullet points for IBD & PWM experiences and then flesh out some on-campus leadership clubs you are involved in.

Thanks for the input. By on-campus leadership, what else would you suggest? Is the one role not good enough?

Also, as a transfer student, its basically impossible to get a leadership role.

Are you part of any on-campus clubs, and do you hold any positions in them? If you don't have any, be prepared to defend yourself if there are any questions that may arise b/c of your lack of on-campus engagement. Being a transfer student, or needing to work to put yourself through college are both valid responses, and wouldn't be looked down upon.

I understand your logic here, but is the previous position as Treasurer of my investment fund not good enough? I am also working in banking right now as a student. To me, that is more important than some BS club. Would you agree with that statement?
