Hello, I am a rising Senior and I was wondering a few things about awards/honors:

1) About how important are they in college applications?

2) Is any award a good award?

3) Are awards that are won consecutively and annually two separate awards or can they be mashed into one award ie. Best Sophmore Orchestra Member, Best Junior Orchestra Member

4) Define an “Honor”

Thank you for your time!
