Is it worth mentioning in the “anything else” secondary prompt that your a 1st generation college student? I assume it shouldn’t make a difference since 1st gen is usually indicated in the primary app?

Don't be redundant. Like teaching a pig to sing, it wastes your time and annoys the pig.

To what extent can information be repeated? Bc I think in my school's committee letter, they repeated some info that was already in my AMCAS primary, like major accomplisments etc.

You have no way of knowing what is in the committee letter so YOU aren't being redundant by including information in your primary that also appears in the letter.
