<p>So, I really need to send in my UW-Seattle application because it's due by the 1st, but I want to clarify something. There's an optional additional comments section at the end of the writing section, as well as an optional additional information section at the end of the application.</p>
<p>The additional comments section says: "Use this section for anything you wish to express that doesn't seem to fit in any of the required writing areas. For example, if you have experienced personal hardships in attaining your education, if your activities have been limited because of work or family obligations, or if you want us to know how important a personal or professional goal is to you, tell us here. (500 words maximum)"</p>
<p>The additional information section says: "Use this space if you need to explain or clarify any answers you have given in this application or to provide additional information that may assist the Admission Office. Be sure to include the question number to which your comment refers. (500 words maximum)</p>
<p>Please do NOT use this space to write or add to your Writing Section."</p>

<li>Is it good or bad to fill out these sections? As in, could they easier help me or hurt me?</li>
<li>If I were to talk about how I only have one semester of AP English junior year because my teacher made rude remarks to myself and other students, so my dad urged me to drop the class (and 1/3 of the class dropped at the same time as I did), where would I talk about that? Or should I even mention it?</li>
<li>If I also wanted to mention that I've only taken 3 AP classes because my school only offers around 6, where would I mention that/should I mention that?</li>
</ol>
<p>Thank you so much!</p>
