<p>Should I attach my general resume to my applications... or maybe just my common application?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>anyone know?</p>
<p>I think you should definitely send (to the individual schools) a one or two page resume or Activities list. Make sure that overall, you do not list the same information listed in the Common Application. Use humor and try to make your self stand out. I think that it is the only opportunity that you have to do it on paper. I was intructed to do it, I did it and it worked!</p>
<p>By the way, stay away from the format of resumes that people use to apply for jobs. It is not the same.</p>
<p>My counselor said not to. She said you should use your application to the fullest extent.</p>
<p>^^ I agree. You want to be able to work with what you have. It also forces you to pick the most important ones and to show a focus. It's very beneficial to have limited space.</p>
<p>But for teacher recommendations it is a good idea to have them...right?</p>
