reapplying to schools where you are waitlisted

I am reapplying to the schools where I am currently waitlisted. This year one of the secondary applications contains a question on how I have heard of the school. Shhould I include in my response to this question the fact that I am a reapplicant to the school?

Also, any GENERAL ADVICE on how to answer 'how have you heard of our school' type of questions?

Thanks.

Although I'm not in med school, many of my friends and boyfriends friends are med students (or residents) from Tulane. Many applied repeatedly. It shows that you really want to go to THAT school. The former dean of admissions said that it usually helps and often told waitlists to reapply...ie. you'll have a really good shot of getting in eventually...and I know a few people to prove it.

I realized after posting this thread that on the supplemental application it asks if I am a reapplicant, so they will know that I am a reapplicant.

Thanks for the input!
