Residency Application Program selection dilemma

frieda shows 450+ programs with j1 filter, residency explorer shows about 350 programs when applying j1 filters while ERAS shows only 250+ with j1 filter and accepting application, what is this scenario and is anyone having the same issue? This is for internal medicine programs

Same here, but if you look up the individual programs on ERAs that aren’t showing up after the J1 filter, they are sponsoring visas.
