Any tips for writing a CV for college applications?

I'm working on my college applications these days and one of my application requirements is to write a CV/Resume. Any tips or advise that would be useful? What do I need to include? Should I include my SAT scores etc? How am I supposed to format it? FYI It's not supposed to be longer than three pages. Thanks :)

1. y will high school student have 3 pages cv?? i will stuck to 1 page if i am u. include high school education at top with total marks, class ranking, testing scores, and so on. nything wit numbers is gud coz it helpz to compare to other studentz. also you shuld write all your clubs and activitez, esp if u won awardz or nything like that if u have work experience, include it next... remember it also countz as work 2 if u did baby-sitting, volunteering, and so on. again its gud to have numberz, like how meny babiez you watched, how meny hourz of service u did each month and so on u shuld also talk bout ur computer experience. for exemple is it just Word or do u know software languages or other things. name everything by software name and operating system. last, u shuld talk about ur hobbyz n interestz. like, do u play a musical instrument, sportz, and so on. again, use numberz where u can so that ppl understand how good u are at your hobbyz. if u still have space, u can add referencez to ur cv. else u can may be just say referencez available by request good luck
