Hey, so some schools have optional essays about anything else that could be address. Does it count against you to not answer an optional essay?

ALso, I know that explaining citations on your legal or academic records/poor mcat score/poor grades/explaining something bad usually goes here, but I don't have anything that stands out like that. I did however transfer from a small liberal arts school to a big research one, which I haven't addressed yet. What's your opinion about putting reasons for transferring in this part?

I used all of them to write something positive about myself.. something that sets me apart from other applicants.

I was on academic probation for 2 semesters (freshman year), but I didn't mention that at all on the secondary. It's on my AMCAS and that's the only place it needs to be.
