Senior in need of help!

I'm a senior at a decent public school (UVA, UMich, Cal, UCLA), and I'm an econ major.

I'm mainly looking to get into f500 finance, but there are quite a few ibanks and consulting firms recruiting on campus, so I might as well apply, I just realize my chances are slim!

Anyways, I need help.... the deadlines are approaching soon, so any input is greatly appreciated.

Any reason for under performing on the GPA front?

Under my tutelage, you will grow from boys to men. From men into gladiators. And from gladiators into SWANSONS.
 

nothing really screams "finance" at me when i read your resume...also, try to quantify the results of your work in your bullet points for example "performed research and built a model for project XX ; led an increase in XX dollars for the firm" something along those lines

Flake, the GPA is low because I received two D's my junior year as a result of missed exams, misunderstanding with teacher, ect..... kinda screwed myself over there.
