PSF and ERAS

[Concubine]

Hi guys,
Filling out ERAS. How do you enter the PSF into eras? Does it go into MD fellowships? Work experiences? Any help would be great!
Thanks,
Concubine

I would put it under education. If there was a pathologist that could write you a LoR, I would definitely ask them to comment on your PSF.

I think I put it under work experience, but it's been two years since I filled it out.

Last year, I categorized my PSF under "Work" in the Experience section of my application. I was, after all, an employee of the hospital/department, and was paid a stipend. Play this experience up as much as you can, and try to emphasize all of the different exposures you've had as a fellow (e.g., teaching, tumor board presentations, research, estimate your SP/autopsy/frozen case numbers, etc.).

Best wishes for a great application and interview season!
