It is very useful for college admission purposes so you should take care in drafting it. You can attach it to some college applications which is a good thing because some apps really limit the space for honors/EC/Cs info on the application. You should always give your resume to anyone who interviews you. You can use it when applying to scholarships. You should always give it to teacher who write your recommendations since they can refer to info in the resume to their LOR’s.
