And yes i realize there is an extra bullet point after my first work experience line....i will fix it.

Here's the thing. If you can't spot the sucker in the first half hour at the table, you are the sucker.
 

"CFA level 1" is misleading and is actually a violation. Look at last section of ethics on how to properly state your candidacy. Though registering for level 1 isn't much of an accomplishment, so i'd strike the whole thing out until you pass on to level 2.

 

The initialism "ICW" should be expanded - also, list the name of your business school, if you're in one. That is more often than not a good accompaniment to the U's name.

Change is to Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance.

Move Expected May 2012 up a line.

List your Cumulative first, take Cumulative off though.

List Finance GPA as Major GPA.

Obviously you're rounding up your Finance GPA because you have it to one significant digit where your cumulative is to two. They should be uniform.

That being said, if you keep them at two, you need to add another 0 to your "4.0"s. If you go to one sig digit, you're fine.

Your dates don't look quite lined up to me but it may just be razume. Make sure they are lined up.

Your first and third GWM bullet needs to be in past tense.

This is just a pet peeve of mine but make sure your dashes are all the same. Word has a long dash and a short dash, and you have mixed them around. I say copy the long dash and replace the shorter ones.

Can you expand on your Student Analyst role? Any specific recs that have performed well or anything like that?

Why don't your Volunteer and Leadership Experience stuff have bullets? They should.

Change your "over"s for your Representative position to "more than"s.

Can also take "dollars" out.

Take CFA and MS Office off.

Take "and" before reading out and just separate it with a comma.

MM IB -> Corporate Development -> Strategic Finance
 
FutureBanker09CFA is off, no one cares about registering for a test. Dates should be aligned to the line above them. Essentially all text needs to be shifted over, see M&I

Have been told otherwise.

Regarding the CFA or the dates? Can't speak to the CFA bit but your education date definitely needs to be up a line.

Razume screwed up the alignment. Im not worried about the formatting i want to get some feedback on the meat of the resume not whether or not my dates are lined up.
