I don’t think you’ll get dinged because you went over 3 words if you had to count them. If it serves as anything I’m already an R1 admit and I didn’t count them

Send official scores ideally before applying, but they usually give some leeway.

For the extracurricular section, that says "List", did you just list or go into more detail? Feels weird just listing

Yes, one sentence only, but you can use semicolons and dashes and even brackets to extend...
