The main points are to make sure you dont include too much personal information. Do NOT include Nationality, age, martial status, etc. Did you go to university? If you did, you really don't need to put any other education than that - anything before is a given.

Let me know if you are interested and I will send you mine. I am USC but did both my undergrate and masters in the UK and now live back in the US, so I tried to make sure I "converted" it correctly.

Contact WES (World Education Services) to have your credentials evaluated and "compared".- this is the best way to do it so there is no "question" as to your level of education. You will need copies of your transcripts.
Good luck, L.
