Writing my student CV for university applications was a bit of a headache at first. I had no idea where to start or what to include. After some trial and error, I figured out a format that really worked!
I broke my CV into clear sections: Education, Experience, Extracurriculars, and Skills. Each section had its own unique role, and it made everything look way more organized.
One key tip: quantify your achievements! Instead of just saying I participated in a debate club, I mentioned that I won second place in a regional tournament, which made a huge difference.
Also, don’t forget to keep it to one page. Admissions officers are busy, so a concise CV is really appreciated!
