Second Year Resume Critique
Hello
I am entering second year in a BBA program with co-op and am interested in the capital markets. At this point I dont know what to pursue, but investment banking is my choice right now.
Any criticisms or useful reviews would be welcomed :)

That's a TON of education, buddy. Its taking up way too much space. Why not just put all your technical skills in the bottom, in the technicals section, like so...
Technical: Bloomberg, Reuters, DCF/LBO modeling, etc
With out the education part, my resume is really short..
I disagree. Your descriptions could be fleshed out, quantified, and results-oriented. For example, take a look at this bullet:
"Performed company and industry specific research in assessing potential investments, while gaining exposure to the DCF model, and researched investment ideas for a wealth advisory services firm that serves over 10,000 clients with a portfolio of over 15 billion Yuan."
That's a great start! A little wordy and not results-oriented, but it can be edited into something better, like...
"Researched potential investments for a wealth advisory services firm that serves over 10,000 clients with a portfolio of over 15 billion Yuan and performed analysis on the firm via DCF modeling, resulting in _____ in blank."
Now, imagine if every bullet was like this. Sure, you might have fewer bullets per job, but they'd be more fleshed out and much better than 20 of these:
"Monitored progress of students" "Helped people" "Breathed oxygen"
lol Reading "Investment" Books....seems like you are trying too hard. I agree reading those books would help you with future investments; but eventually you have to make your own investment decisions based on your own principles.
lol, I wasn't going to keep "reading investment books" on my resume. How else could I increase the sentences for my work experience and leadership positions if I take out most of the education stuff?
