@wysdoc there is also an essay if you choose "highly interested" for either the Problem-Based Learning Curriculum (PBLC) or Synergistic Guided Learning Curriculum (SGLC).

"Please prepare an essay that explains why you want to participate in the Problem-Based Learning Curriculum (PBLC) and why you are a good fit for this curricular track." PBLC would be SGLC if you chose that one
