Help with my resume

I'm 18 years old and freshly graduated from a French high school outside of France. I'm currently majoring in economics and my plan is to enter either HEC or ESSEC in my masters. What kind of resume is a must-have resume? What should it absolutely include? How much minimum grades should I have? And what kind of extracurricular activities and other experiences should I consider doing?
