I wasn't sure where exactly I should post this, so I thought maybe you guys would know best.
When writing your CV, do you include certain things that you qualified for and did not decide to pursue? I guess I'll be a little less vague...I was offerred a couple of fellowships and decided on only one (obviously, can't be at 2 places at once). When I mention this on the CV, would I write only the one that I accepted and participated in or can I write something like "Candidate for blah blah blah fellowship" too?
Also, what about a one-time deal volunteer/community service experience? For instance helping out in a homeless shelter for only a day...would this be silly to include?
Also, do you include scholarships you've received?
Lastly, how far back should activities be listed from? What I mean is do we include all the extracurrics from undergrad or even high school?
Thanks guys!
