Several Resume Questions

Hey all - Applying to business school in Round 1 / 2 this year and thought I'd ask about some nitpicky best practices for MBA resumes for PE/VC associates.

  • If you closed a private deal, should you mention any valuation / capital commitment metrics? If so, should it be total enterprise valuation or equity invested? If not, is there any way (or is it important) to give a sense of scale of the acquisition?
  • For Undergraduate GPA, best practice to go out 1 or 2 decimal points?
  • For GMAT score, what's the best format to layout (e.g., "GMAT: XXX" or "GMAT: XXX, QXX, VXX, AWXX, IRXX")
  • Currently have a number of extracurriculars that are in college and post-college. Right now, I'm putting my college extracurriculars in my Education section in 1-2 line items like this "Extracurriculars: Co-founder of XXX Club; Panel Chair for XXX; Tutor for XXX." Then I have my post-college extracurriculars (NGO youth boards, volunteering, etc.) under an "Extracurricular Activities" section. What is usually the best way to lay these out?

Thanks! 

 

I'd reckon gmat score is most popular straight up, if not score, q,v. Nobody cares what your aw or IR socre is that is for sure.
