Standard CV?

[atag]

I know this might sound like a stupid question, but what do Mcgill mean by standard cv...and only two pages.

I am used to writing my cv for grants as a graduate student and they are generally quite longer. Does Mcgill wants just a list of employment history, volunteer work, and extracurricular activities on a two pages?

Plus do we include any verifiers for the activities?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

I was in the same boat last year when I applied and I used my academic CV, however I made sure that I included lots of my extra curricular info in my autobiography and was able to discuss it in further detail during my interview. Good Luck

Actually a CV is different than a resume. A resume is typically 2 pages and highlights your most important experiences whereas a CV typically lists all of your previous accomplishments and can be very long.
