Common App Essay and Form question

<p>1) If my Common App Essay is 834 words (my College Counselor has looked at it and said it was fine) and it's about 2.5 words double spaced, Times New Roman, 12 font, would it be better to single space it instead so the admissions officers will not have to scroll through three pages, or should I leave it as it is (double spaced, running on 3 pages)?
2) If I'm attaching a resume, is it necessary for me to put anything down for the Honors/Awards section on the common app? Should I put "Please see resume" or just leave the section blank? </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
