Resumes

Some colleges that I’m applying to ask for a resume on top of the activities section from the Common App. Most high school resumes include information that I’ve already put in Common App (grades, clubs I’m in, previous jobs, volunteering etc.), so what can I do to make my resume contribute something else that’s meaningful rather than rehash the information the school already has?

They really just want it because sometimes people have more than 10 activities. Just submit your resume as it is. If you really want to make it stand out, you could provide descriptions longer than the ones on common app.
