<p>My dad wants me to add to my "brag sheet" a section for international travel. I've lived/spent long periods in Kazakstan, Armenia, and Russia (not recently, though...about nine years ago). He thinks adcoms will see this as an interesting facet about me. I can't decide if it comes off as bragging or if it's just extraneous info. either way, i don't like it. However, I've read college prep books with sample resumes where the people did include things like hobbies and travel, so maybe this is common? i don't know, but I wanted your thoughts, fellow Yale EAers.</p>
<p>Yale's supplement already asks you if you've lived overseas and if so when/what level were you educated there so that should be sufficient.</p>
<p>that's what i figured.
thanks.</p>
<p>Heya! Just wanted to add my 2 cents cuz I'm international too... It all depends how much it affected you as a person. If it's just "something", simply mention it. If it's the reason you are who you are as a person, subtly nudge it in your essays. But I'd still mention it overall at some point or other.</p>
<p>The "brag sheet" well, NEVER title it "brag sheet" on your actual thing - "resume" sounds nicer. :P Lol!</p>
<p>actually, don't title it anything.</p>
<p>i've never heard of a person titling his or her resume "resume"</p>
