Resume Review - Harsh

I need a harsh review of my resume. I've been speaking with analysts and have changed it accordingly, but I know that it is still not up to par.

I don't have an exceptional amount of experience, so any help making it more geared towards IB would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for any help that you can offer, I'm finding it extremely difficult to get replies to my networking attempts (only luck has been places willing to speak to me after they sent out their Superdays, and still in email contact with a founder of a boutique MM).

I'm confused about the latin honors (magna cum laude) you have under "Education." Usually (at least at my school), these are only conferred (and thus, one is able to put it on their resume) upon graduation. Since you are graduating in 2014, it seems a little odd to see it on there. Even saying something like "Expected: Magna cum laude" seems weird to me. If I were you, I would take this off my resume (you don't want to put anything on your resume that would confuse the person reviewing your resume), but if your school has a different way of doing things, then I guess it doesn't matter.
