Final Assignment: Create your resume, cover letter with letter head, and GPA calculations
This is your final and as such should represent your best effort. This project has a value of 200 points!

The resume should be no longer than two pages and the cover letter one page.

Pages of the resume should be numbered using a footer and should have a watermark.

Add a page to the back of your resume that contains a formatted table.
The table should list 10 courses you have taken (you can make these up),
the grade received, and grade points (A=4, B=3, C=2, etc.). The last row
should then average (as calculated by Word) and display the resulting grade point average (GPA).
Be sure to add column headings, table title, and a short summary of your goals
external to the table (either above or below).

Please submit all documents as attachments to the same email.
