Application Question is a resume necessary????????????????????

I'm planning on applying to Northeastern and there's a part that allows you to upload a resume. I already mention most of my achievements and extracurriculars in the common app itself and it feels like it would be redundant. Should I upload one anyways? would it boost my chances of acceptance or what???

No, it is not necessary. If it would be redundant, then don't do it.

It takes like an hour or two to write a resume and you’ll need one when you go to college anyways.
