I am curious if anyone has an idea of what is important to include in the awards section. My resume is already 2 pages with relevant work experience, the 5 unis I've attended, awards, internships, and teaching positions so I need to be selective.
I've seen people listing stuff like Dean's List and it seems to me that is already apparent from your GPA, if you have a high GPA right? Is that really an "award" or "honor" or is it just likely to detract from more substantial stuff they don't already know from my GPA?
Or I've seen people list having an honor's thesis as an accomplishment. At my uni, that was required to graduate from the honor's college alongside a certain number of honors credit (which I could probably just have a recommender point out). Should I mention I graduated summa cum laude from the honor's college? How do I stick that up with my GPA? Does it just look like GPA: 4.0, summa cum laude, honor's college - will that be enough to mean something or should I denote it in another way or leave out entirely because its already evident from my GPA?
Thanks
I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
