I was dismissed from optometry school back in 2004. I was immature etc. I was 20 when i entered. I think those questions are there are good to answer if you have something to put there.
 
Chillicheesedog....My grandmother died too during my sophomore year which had a huge impact on my grades. I wasn't sure if I should list that or not? I did mention it in my personal statement though.

What reasons are you going to list, if any?
