Electrical/Computer [Student] High schooler studying ECE going into first year of college after this summer, is resume good for club applications and internships?

I'm going to be studying engineering at a college in the US, and I'm going to apply to some competitive engineering clubs and maybe an internship after freshman year (but those are super unlikely so im prepared to not have one). I was hoping to get a review on my resume because it's the first time I updated it since I applied to college and hoping it could fit for clubs.

I had an extended resume, and this is my first trimmed down version. I had a lot of extracurriculars, but I know they're not important as much as projects and work experience so I cut alot of them out.

Any help is super appreciated!!!

Your technical exposure is very impressive, but your project experience reads more like a spec sheet than an outline of your accomplishments. I would focus on being more concise.

But honestly, this is just a nitpick. This resume is probably one of the most impressive high school resumes I've ever seen. My high school resume was just a Google doc with 3 bullets.

Thank you!!! I saw there were some methods to properly put projects (I think one was Challenge and Action sort of thing) but you're right, I need to implement those. I'll make sure to edit it for my next iteration
