I think awards/honors are equally important as your ECs but less important than your GPA and recommendations. They just serve to show your talent and ability in certain areas.
There is no such thing like ‘good’ award. But national awards or awards that are related to your future major will definitely make the college notices you.
I’ll just leave 3) and 4) to others 'cause I don’t really know the answers. BTW I’m a rising senior too;)
