(Sorry don't know exactly where to post this so mods can feel free to move).

When schools ask for "optional" comments such as "Would you like to provide the Admissions Committee with additional information?" is it encouraged to do so?

What else can I write about? Ex. Is it recommended to talk about my low verbal reasoning score in comparison to my sciences. Or should I stick to things that highlight my unique qualities and desire to succeed in medicine?

Thanks for the time. Much appreciated.

(And YES, I know I'm pretty late before anybody comments on that issue haha.)
 
It is so that you can explain anything negative on your app. So if you feel you can justify a lower verbal score then you would discuss it there. I feel like you could use that space for more significant explanations than your MCAT verbal though. I always used this section on an application
