Is there anything else the administration should know?

This is one of the suplemmental app questions and I think I have included everything in my primAry. Is it bad to leave blank. I am not sure what to elaborate...


Also, another question was whether there were breaks in my education. I graduated in May 2014, and then I only took two science courses, one in Fall 2014 and the other in Spring 2015, do I need to explain what I did during that time off when I was taking 4 credits each term? Or is this not really a break?

Thank you!

I'm curious too!
One of my secondary apps asks a similar question...
I am drafting it to include some significant medical issues I dealt with while at undergrad - but it would be nice to know if we should include anything else if we're otherwise confident that our app is a good representation of all of our experiences...

It's a catch all question where you could explain a particular reason for a bad first mcat score or 1st year in college, etc. If you don't need it, you don't need it. I wouldn't reiterate anything. Nobody wants to read the same things over and over, it's a waste of time and doesn't add anything.
If you graduated, and took a few additional classes in the year(s) after, that's not a break in your education. A break in your education would be taking a year or semester off during school. I'm sure you commented already on what you did after school (job, internship, etc.)
