As an International student I do not quite understand what experiences can be called research assistant. I once participated in a professor's research and did some work together with his graduates. He did not give me any title and few undergraduates would participate in professors' research in my college, so I have no idea whether I can list this experience as a research assistant.

Most schools I apply to do not emphasize not to send them additional materials. But if a CV is what professors like to read and is so important, why every school require a SOP but few schools require CV?

Thanks for your advice. Maybe I should prepare a CV but not submit it to the school.

hello everyone, I don't have many important experiencs to list in CV. I have described the most important experiences in SOP. So I think provide a CV will not help me. None of the schools I apply to require CV, so do you think not providing CV will hurt my chance of being admited even they don't require it? Thanks in advance for your help.
