is it okay to talk about PBL during UG in your secondaries?

several schools that ask the "why the school" question are PBL-based
can I briefly mention the PBL in some courses during UG and how much I enjoyed the experience?
obviously those PBL are quite the same

I can't speak for other PBL schools, but at CCLCM that would be something the adcomm would like to know. They are trying to find students who work well in small groups and are self-directed in learning style. So if you already have PBL experience and you already know that you liked it, I would tell them.
