The "additional info" box

<p>What types of things do you put in this space? I left them blank on my common app, and now I think that might have been a huge mistake.
Would AP test scores, a death in the family, or minor health problems (i.e. not cancer) be appropriate to explain in the space?</p>

<p>no, its not part of the personal statement, its mostly supposed to be like administrative stuff. and APs are reported in the tests section</p>
