i'm confused why you have a math minor and a math major, and i don't think you need to put proficient in ms word etc since everyone knows it. other than that it looks pretty good.
Hi. Thanks for your feedback Oh, actually my minor is math not my major. (majors are Finance & Stats) Do you think I should make this clearer? and if so how should i do that? thanks!
Sure, on the second line you stated you will have a bachelor in arts in mathematics, which made me think that you also have a major in math. it might be clearer if you just put minor: math. It's not that common to put gpa for minors but you can do it - I don't see how that would hurt you since your math gpa is good.
oh that one Thats coz at my old College that was the degree I was pursuing (during 2008-2009) but i transferred to my current college (2009-2012) and now its a minor.
Anyway thanks for you input!
Anyone else have any comments?
At first glance, I think the resume doesn't pop out. It has too much white space (your margins seem very wide and the content seems lacking). Looks like you took a career center template, which usually are pretty terrible. In short, you want it to be more robust but also keep it clean.
I think the math minor part made sense when I saw the line item. Make sure you include your GPA since you've transferred.
In the activities section, with finance club, I'd blow this out a little more and talk more about what kind of discussions/presentations were done. Did it involve doing research on a stock/sector or learning valuation methods. Also, remove the piece about aiming to be on the executive board.
Some bullet points have periods at the end, some don't. Keep it consistent. Also keep your years consistent- some are shown as 2009-2010 while others are 2007-08.
I'd expand on the wild life club a little more. You should be more proactive and discuss any involvement in bringing the prime minister in, size of club, growth of club, etc... Keep in mind that since you're still a sophomore, you can stand out by highlighting some of your leadership achievements both in HS and college.
You can also include interests (you can make the last section SKILLS/INTERESTS).
