Could you get away with embelishing your update letter, i.e. volunteering?????

Okay so I've already sent a school one letter of interest but I still haven't heard back from them and I sent the letter about a month & 1/2 ago. So, my question is, should I send them another letter that basically only says how interested I still am and that this is the one school I want to go to. The thing is, not much is new. I'm still working at my Biotech company but that's about it. One more question I have is, do schools verify what you write? I mean, I could write that I'm volunteering at a hospital when I'm not. So, how do they know we really do all these great things we say we're doing?

Another letter couldn't hurt -- tell them that you haven't heard from them in a while and are still interested. Come up with some new stuff that you like about the school. Wow them with your enthusiasm!!!
