Hi,

I'm a rising Junior at a target school. This is my first time doing this. If you need any more information let me know. I really appreciate it.

With that SAT thing you're walking a very fine line between embellishing and intentionally misleading. I wouldn't make claims about score improvements until somebody actually gets that higher score. By mentioning that they started off with low scores from the start the question must be asked, how much value did you really add? How much better could they have done if they just picked up one of those self study books or got the $50 software program from Best Buy?

I see you've done a little of a lot of things, but not a lot of any one thing. What industry are you going for? I see China on there a few times, are you thinking of doing something China related?

I'm working at a Chinese test prep company that set up a joint venture with the company I worked for last summer. The test prep company finds students/does the visa and test prep work while the other company gets these kids into colleges. Basically, the place I'm at now felt the jv wasn't working out so they want me to help them expand their own admissions consulting business. I can do almost everything they can more cheaply. I set up something in new york so I can continue working on this project when I get back to the states. Not finance related, but it's interesting and my Chinese is improving.

I just added those two lines right before I uploaded it so I didn't really put too much thought into it...

I plan on applying for banking internships for next summer. All the ocr stuff is for nyc or boston but I think doing something in China would be great too,

Thank you guys for your help. What can I do to my resume to make it clear I'm interested in finance? Anything else I should change?
