Resume Review Baruch College Student Junior Accounting Major Low GPA

Hi,
I commute and pay out of my own pocket for Baruch College. I am unfortunately not in the Honors Program. Due to some personal circumstances such as my mother's cancer scare in my sophomore year and adjusting to commuting from Rockland County to NYC my GPA is a 3.2. However, I am working on raising this to at least a 3.5 which I know is the minimum, and there are those from my college that have 3.9's, and obviously Harvard and Penn State with perfect GPA's. I have received no replies from any internship I have applied to through my school's career center website. I want to improve my resume so even with the low GPA it gets somewhat of a look. Over the summer I researched and was able to intern at a local CPA firm. They kept me on as an on-call member because they were impressed by my work ethic.

What I want- Please critique as much as possible, and give me suggestions on improvement. I want to get a position at either a Big 4 or JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs. I don't have the financial resources to get a paid resume review so I would appreciate any good free help I can get (yeah I know I'm one of million) but please do give what you can.

Here's a position description of an internship I am aiming for, perhaps this will help in tailoring a resume suggestion :
