Get rid of SAT score and coursework, they add nothing

since you're in school still you could argue that the coursework might be helpful if they show stuff that align with the kind of job you want (i.e. you wanted cybersecurity and list just the courses related to that). I usually suggest you either remove courses altogether or you limit it to a few that can fit on one line.
the number of years per language also can be removed
don't put a job you haven't started

Did you list out every class you ever took/ can think of lmao

#

Usually when listing college courses, general rule of thumb is to list like no more than 5-6 most relevant courses

#

Right now it looks like a splatter of courses you just threw on it

You'll probably hear a lot of different opinions on this. personally, I feel like you'll never get an accurate idea of how good at a language you are based on the length of time you've spent on it. 4 years of Java in an academic setting might produce a different skill set than 4 years of Java in an app development setting. Plus I feel every bit of space on your resume is valuable, and that space is better spent showing your skills through the bullet points instead of trying to list out how long you've spent on each language.
