<p>What NOT to include: don’t add information that is already readily available on your application, such as GPA and courses (already on transcript), SAT/ACT scores (already submitted and on app), AP course & scores (already listed in app), HS name and address (already in app), goal/objective (DAH!)</p>
<p>Yes, include name, address, phone # and email.
Be sure to explain particular awards and ECs, especially if its title is not clear and/or if you need to elaborate on the particular level or accomplishment</p>
<p>List items in a sequence depending on what is most important to you. If it’s sports, list that first. If it’s Leadership, list that first. If it’s Awards and achievements, list that as #1. Do NOT list test scores. Academics are already hashed out numerous times. Your resume should cover stuff that is new or needs further explanation. If Academics are your strongest suit, list your involvement via related ECs…clubs/volunteer/work, and awards. It will show best through your essay and recs. </p>
<p>If you don’t HAVE anything new to add, don’t bother to send a resume. It’s okay if your application already covers the information and quite possibly the adcoms will be grateful your application is succinct.</p>
