Op here. If it were a Top Score.


Then you should have been able to do amazing things in college, too! Put those on instead.

If you work in a SAT tutoring company, then you can certainly put your perfect SAT scores there.

Why would you put your SAT score on your resume?

None.
I won a national engineering contest in high school. It went on my college applications, and on my resume until I was 21 (applying for my first "real" job after college). It hasn't appeared on my resume since then.

I think the science award (above), you perform a heart transplant in a burning building while rescuing lab animals and saving the human race, or if you win the Olympics … other than that, nothing.

I am a scientist and won a national science award in high school. It is on my list of awards. It makes my 25 page resume (you have to document *everything* in academia) but not my 2 page resume

SAT score? Really?

Even when I was 21 and a recent college grad, I didn’t have any HS info.

Unless you are just out of high school or possibly just out of college, none is definitely the right answer. You do not want it to look like you are stretching to fill a resume up.

I would think none. *maybe* you might put something outstanding from high school when you are entry level first full time job, immediately post college.

But generally, if you are a launched adult, high school accomplishments do not make it on the resume.

As an adult, I assume you should not have high school things on your resume absent a VERY good reason. But would honors like school-wide Outstanding Student awards make the cut? Or is it best to reserve for things like SAT score? Note that this question is directed toward adults, not college interns. Thank you.
