The answers you gave are correct. He's right- Your resume should be as complete as you can make it, but If you don't have an answer for a particular section-
you can put the phrase "Not Applicable"...
The important thing is that your resume be an honest and clear guide to what you are all about, what you've done in Life, what you can do for this particular job with your experience and such... at your young age this shouldn't be complicated
Try posting a simple profile at snag-a-job to get free job info for your area- it's free. A resume is like a profile with a few more questions and sections:

Hello again lily, good day to you!;)
I believe there are online resumes out there, where you can fill up. We have some here, but I'm not sure if it's allowed there in your place. You can also copy some from it, since all it needs is just to put some of your credits and background. Try this link I'll give you, it's a free online resume and hope it helps..

Hey :) i appreciate you giving me that link but I found another site. I just really don't know how to do a good resume and I don't have anyone to help me at the moment. So maybe you could, if you don't mind?
They want to know an Objective and Accomplishments. Do I just put accomplishments that would relate to what I'm applying for. I'm not sure if I have any lol. And I don't know what to put for an objective. They also want related coursework and keyword summary. i don't know what to say for those either X.X

Well, there are quite a lot of examples in the internet, go download some from the internet. I don't think the resume should be too complicated, it is just about you and your advantages. Just figure out what you could do and what you would like to be. Why you are capable of the job you are appyling for etc.
