Honest resume advice needed
I am currently a junior in my school and will graduate next year. I am very interested in management consulting and would like to pursue at least a consulting internship, and hopefully a full-time career.
Aside from the usual tips about content and formatting, I am also wondering if you guys can assess (from scale of 0 - 10), my chances of getting a management consulting internship at a notable firm (at least OW or Accenture). This is assuming I put in moderate effort in networking and research.
Thank you, any help and advice is appreciated!

Sorry I forgot to mention - my school can be described as a semi-target (MBB and a few consulting firms do hire, but only a few people each year).
Put your GPA - where education section is
Include dates, location of your experiences and substitute "Graduation" with a specific month (ex. May 2014). Make it uniform all via your resume
Also, for your Big 4 experience, I would separate the internships since there are 2 in different practices as you mentioned - arrange them chronologically with the exception of the firm's name in the second (less recent) experience.
Remove your consulting club from the education section and put it in the leadership experience section.
Your personal interest should be substituted with the language part since it is less relevant
Also, if you can I would try to make my bullet points for my experiences to be one-line max.
Isn't audit and assurance the same practice?
packmate - yes, audit and assurance is the name of the group I am in. I have also done engagements outside of year-end audits at my firm.
crayb - thanks for the advice! outside of the formatting and small things though, how competitive do you think my work and leadership experiences are for MC?
