so i'm currently trying to expand on my academic awards (bc a lot of them aren't obvious from first glance, eg not like dean's list etc) but am running into space issues. is it better to be more thorough and expand on them more (thus taking up 2 slots), or to be more concise (and potentially losing some details) and just use one? in any case, i definitely won't have space for "reflection", is this okay for awards and similar

I listed three scholarships/awards within one work/activity heading. I doubt you need to spend a whole 700 characters on a single award, especially if you want to discuss more than one.
 
I agree with being concise and just explaining what each honor/award is without going into further "reflection."
