<p>Do you plan to submit the resume for U Penn?</p>
<p>yep! i think it’ll help highlight all the things I’ve done to prepare for colleges along with ec’s etc but i also feel like its pointless after putting all of our ec’s in the common app. but still, i made one for a few of my other schools and thought ‘why not’ for penn. can’t hurt.</p>
<p>I talked to an admissions officer and he basically told me not to do it because most of the time it is repetitive and they already have enough to read.
I didn’t submit a resume and got in ED. You should be ok without one.</p>
<p>@Philly2000 Congratulations!</p>
<p>The resume portion is really only necessary if you have an extra activity that is really important and cannot fit in the EC section of common app. If you feel like you’d be repeating information, then it’s better to not.
Don’t worry, I didn’t and still get in ED as well, so no worries! Just give what you have, nothing more and nothing less, and you got a fair shot at being accepted! </p>
