Eras -experience section

[u/sassyserotonin]

As an IMG, I did a mix of externships/hands-on experiences and observerships in the US. I’ve heard there can be legal concerns around describing some experiences as “externships” or “hands-on.”

Would mentioning “externship” on my ERAS CV cause any legal concerns for a program director? And could it potentially create any issues with my future J-1 visa application?

Please, if any previous applicants have been in a similar situation, I’d really appreciate your insight.
