Please critique my resume 2

Hey guys. Just to clarify, I am a sophomore at a midwest semi/non target. Please comment about absolutely anything you think I should improve.

(also sorry about not using razume, the website wouldnt upload any of my documents)

 

Focus a lot more on those internships you've had. Experience is key so talk about what you did in detail. That's what they care about most. Include what the result was from that work. :Resulted in.... You have a lot of experience which should take up most of your resume, so don't talk about those activities in bullets. Just include them at the bottom. Use that space to show more info about your experiences. Obviously whichever one is most impressive should be talked about more.

 

GPA rounded to 2 decimals. Your ACT is basically your SAT score, so no need to include it. Take out everything related to high school. Cut some stuff so there's a space between every activity or position; right now there's way too much text, so it's hard to read. You have way too many interests; pick four max. Make all verbs / descriptions past tense. Other than that, pretty solid.

Rounding to two would lower my GPA significantly. Should I still do it? Also if I cut out everything from high school, the second line of my "achievements" section won't go all the way to the right. Should I keep like two things, just so it hits the right margin. Most of my things are still on-going, so shouldn't those things be present tense?

What, is your GPA 3.85? mfw you think there's a big difference between a 3.85 and a 3.9. Also, by rounding to one place, people just assume you have significantly less because no one rounds down, but lots of people round up.
