Sophomore applying to 2023 SA - Resume advice?

Hey monkeys,

Don't post here much but I was wondering if anyone had any advice for the formatting/writing in my resume. I go to a non-core uni and am getting ready to apply to a lot of MM and BB SA positions. In a couple of processes with some small banks in my area for this summer as well, so hopefully I'll be able to add some 'incoming IB" experience before application deadlines. 

Also, I have no clue how strong of a candidate I am compared to the rest of the applicant pool this year and am stressing out. If anyone could provide some color on how I stand it would be much appreciated.

Best,

Prospect

Hi Intern in PE - Other, no, I never sleep and so I can respond to any lonely threads (like this one) at all hours of the night. Impressive, I know ;-)

More suggestions...

If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
