Question: In the PharmCas application there is a section under the 'Personal
Data' section titled 'Special Life Circumstances'. It asks to
"describe any special life circumstances. These include but are not
limited to the following: raised in a single parent home,
socioeconomic status of family, first generation attending college,
overcoming adversity, resident of an under-served area or an area with
a health professions shortage, race and ethnicity, and cultural
background". The information is not required for the application, so
what is it used for? Should I put forth an essay type answer and go
into a lot of detail or skip it?
Answer: Thanks for your question. Schools can use it for any purpose they want (or none at all). They might use this information to award scholarships, for example.
I have never seen this information used negatively against an applicant, but I have seen cases where applicants have greatly benefited from giving a thorough response. I would strongly suggest that you complete it.

I left this question meaning to come back to it at a later date but forgot to do that. I have numerous special circumstances that apply and i am beating myself up about it. I touched on some of them in my personal statement, but it would have helped considerably to answer this question. I hope it does not harm my chances.
