So I am re-applying to some schools and was wondering what I should write for the secondaries? Some schools ask why our school? or what can you contribute? etc. Would it look bad if I wrote the same things I did last cycle in my current secondaries? My reasons for attending the school/what I can contribute won't change. Thanks for your help!

They probably wont notice that its the same.
 
Call the school and ask if they look at your old application.

Georgetown and Loyola come to mind as schools that will loook at your new and old applciation. You definitely do not want everything the same for those school's essays.

You can use some of the same themes/ideas, but atleast consider re-writing must of it.

If the school doesn't look at your old application, go for it.
