but it includes high school information, not college. should i still put my test scores on my resume, even if it is for my sophomore year? i just am not totally sure as to what kind of information alumnae will be looking for.

also, is all that stuff about your parents and their occupations really important? it just seems superfluous, and kind of a waste.

thanks so much!
I come from a Northeast school that doesn't have a super competitive recruitment. It didn't matter what your parents did for a living. I was never asked. Your dad could be a doctor or a ditch digger; your mom could be a lawyer or a stay at home mom. What mattered was you.

That said, I'd submit a resume that includes the information on the sample resume (heck, I've been asked for my SAT scores when applying for jobs, even though I took the SAT back in the Stone Age when it actually qualified as an IQ test) and add your college GPA and any college activities.
