Note
Reformat, use traditional bullets, it looks more professional
Note
Exellent GPA, great work!
Note
I dont really like these line breaks, but its a minor difference.
Note
Suggestion: try quantifying your resume more, add numbers, $ amounts, number of people, etc. It will help recruiters selection important items from your experience.
Note
Overall, and exceptional resume. Be sure to share your knowledge with others on razume.
Note
If this is the Presidental Academic Scholarship... call it that... GW has other scholarships that are non-Academic - like the Presidential Arts Scholarship
Note
Get rid of this
Note
A new bullet is needed - badly. Filled in circles or squares are preferable
Note
I am not a fan of this deception. What is you overall GPA?
Note
Clarify --- when did you make deans list
Note
Did you do anything different or extraordinary?
Note
Noone care about what you were elected to do... it is what you do."Chaired and managed the Committee..."
Note
Law school apps are going to ask for overall GPA, not major.
Note
I would expand upon these two. They are unique experiences that stand out as leadership. Show how your leadership/instruction made a real difference. Law schools will eat that up
Note
Makes these more result oriented. What and who did you do this stuff for? Just going to a meeting should not be something you use to try to sell me on why I should admit/hire you.
Note
I would create a heading called Leadership Exerience and put this under it. You dont need to sell yourself on some many skills or activities. You have clear leadership experience that I would prefer you to share in more depth.
Note
You should include an objective at the topof the resume. The objective should be 1-2 sentences outlining the job you are applying for and why you are qualified.
Note
Dont include your GPA unless an employer specifically asks for it. Though you have an awesome GPA, if another applicant applies and includes a BETTER GPA, its an automatic quantitive comparison. You want the employer to look at your resume objectively.
Note
Just say "Evaluated software in use at the bureau".

This is an excellent resume. Very impressive GPA and work experience. Keep up the good work! I have a few comments, but nothing major. You clearly know how to write great resumes---make sure you share your knowledge with others in the Razume community.

You need to be more honest. Also, you have a lot of activities... as you get more experience you will need to figure out what is important. Also, SA Senator may be better placed in activities. You also need to make sure it is action words...

Good resume. Just a few minor changes in my opinion. I would put your overall GPA instead of Major, since GWU SOB doesn't have majors. I would also add your LSAT score after you take them. Best of Luck

Square bullets are eye catching. Competency in spanish could be replaced with Conversant.

This is an excellent resume and I know that you are going to land a lot of interviews! I think you just need to include an objective and make a few minor tweaks. See my notes for more info.

I think a summary of qualifications should be used.
