<p>How should I format the resume for CP? That is, should/do I have to include</p>
<ul>
<li>Activity descriptions/summaries</li>
</ul>
<p>-List of skills</p>
<p>-GPA, SAT scores, SSL hours, etc</p>
<p>-References</p>
<p>Apart from that, is using the Microsoft Word template a good way to go?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter much, as long as it is neat, has headings for individual areas, and is grammatically correct! You don’t really need the reference part, since it’s included elsewhere on the app. Basically, if it makes you look good, put it in. This is your chance to point out what you’ve done that you think makes you be a good candidate. Accentuate your positives.</p>
<p>You can use a Word template, or just type into a blank word document. Since it will be part of the online app, you probably don’t want to spend a lot of time putting in extra spaces, etc. or using fancy fonts.</p>
I just sent in my application for umd and I noticed now that i had put down the same section heading twice. It goes honors, then i list my honors, then honors again, nothing under it, and then activities
Is this going to be a problem^
