Resume

The resume you make for apping is a lot different from the other types of resumes for jobs etc. There are lots of sources that cater to resume making. But I can give an overall layout for resume:

1. Name and contact details, including phone number, email address and website.
2. Education: Here you have to give your cumulative GPA/percentage. No need to give semester-wise details.You can even skip your 12th/10th results (but you can consider putting it in case you have exceptional results and may be state rank etc)
3. Publications, if any
4. Work Experience, if any / Internships.
   
5. Projects, starting with final year projects
6. Term projects (this can be combined with the above heading if required)
7. Relevant Courses.
8. Skills
9. Awards/Recognitions/Scholarships obtained
10. Relevant Courses
11. Extra-curricular activities (not needed at all)
