Listing Deal Experience from SA?

Hi all,

I was just wondering if I should list the deals I worked on over my summer analyst stints under a separate heading in my resume like "Selected Deal Experience: - Acquisition of XXX, $2.5b", or is this usually frowned upon for somebody fresh out of school? Will recruiters for FT think that I only have a cursory understanding of the deal and therefore negatively impact my chances?

Would it be better to just list general points such as "ran DCF models for potential acquisition of XXX"?

Thanks!
