Hello guys.
I was filling out secondary information and some schools ask you if you have any connection to that school and if you know anyone who goes to that school. Unfortunately, around me, I don't have that many dentists or dental students I know. Is it better to leave a blank or better to write like one sentence saying that "Even though I don't have any connection to ** school, I really hope to attend ** school like no other" or something like that...
Please help!
Thank you!! =)

Ultimately the answer to your question is : up to you.

The answer though, to me at least, is pretty obvious. They ask if you have any connections. If you don't, you leave it blank 😕

Like, if you didn't have a middle name, when they ask for your middle initial, would you put "I want to go to DS"?

Writing things when they didn't ask you to means you can't follow directions, which is not a first impression you want to leave for the DS you are applying to.

On that note, just use your best judgement. My answer: No, leave it blank.
