Hi all,

I know there is not definite answer to this, but in general how long would a resume for graduate school, particularly in engineering be? I understand that it can be longer than 1 page unlike work resumes for someone who has little experience, but what would be the best length? I started off with my work resume and continued to add project and academic experiences that may pertain to graduate school. Right now I have about 2-1/4 pages. Should I make it 3 pages or take out material and make it 2 pages as people usually just skim through these things? My experiences take up two of the pages so far, not including skills, education background, etc.
