Hello all,

I was wondering whether stating I was interested in a specific international clinical rotation site that a certain medical school offers will be appropriate to explain under this secondary question. It is in a region where my parents were born, if that matters.

Also, the secondary question specifically says what opportunities would you take advantage of at this school of medicine...So wouldn't interest in a training site be OK to list.

If I do list that, I would additionally explain, in a much broader sense, "Why this School?"

Thanks in advance.

Sounds great to me. Have many other reasons in addition but that is a solid one to list.

Honestly, just say some things about the school that you like. That's all that they want you to do. It's not a trap.
