Should be good, try to follow Google’s XYZ formula for resume points to highlight impact.
Okay, thank you! Do you reckon that saying that my International Baccalaureate grade of a 43/45 was the highest in my grade is a bit obnoxious? Or is it okay? I just want them to know that I performed really well in the context of my school's environment especially since I'm not 100% sure if they are fully familiar with what a 43/45 signifies
Definitely. Logically you should put it in an "award" section but in your case you lack of experience to have an award section.
I think you're a troll personally but I would risk myself to recommend you to use a better design by picking a template online
I am not a troll, this is a genuine CV. Why would it go under the 'award' section? It is complimentary information to the grade received just like First Class Honors and you don't see that being put in awards... And why use a better design? This is literally the WSO template which most people suggest using. And I'm curious to know what makes you think I'm a troll?
Recruiters will know what an IB 43/45 means. I personally would not put the highest scorer part as it’s a standardised exam (not that you scored the highest worldwide), unless your school is an underprivileged or something.
