I’m starting to write out my brag sheet/resume (for my recommenders) and I’ve come across a formatting conundrum.
I’m sort of what you would call an “angular student” as opposed to “well-rounded”. Over my high school career, my activities and leadership positions were all pretty much within a few organizations (they where extensive, just not super spread out). So, I’m wondering, how do I format my resume? Should I list “Extracurricular Activities: Organization Name: How I was Involved,” (or with say, theatre, by type of activity) or should I use the format of having the different activities I’ve been involved in (with the same organization) under different categories (e.g., “summers/employment”, “community service” etc.,) even though they are with the same organization?
Also my activities are quite unique and would benefit from additional explanation, and I’m home schooled. I know normally you aren’t supposed to submit a brag/sheet resume with the Common App, but given my circumstances, would it be alright to upload it (or a shortened version) into the “additional information” section?
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks very much!
