under the academic history section, in advanced dental education programs attended you can choose externship from the drop down menu of program level.

What about externships that I will attend before interviewing, but after I submit PASS? Should future externships be listed on PASS?

I am putting my externships under extracurricular. I didn't like that advanced program area because they have start year and finish year whereas i could put how many weeks i was at programs in the extracurricular area.

I put it in both places. Can't hurt!

any more thoughts on this one?

Are you other applicants putting it in both places or just one?

Yeah, I'm kind of torn on this as well. The only problem with putting it under extracurricular or professional experience is brief description of responsibilities. For pedo externships usually this consists of "standing around asking questions and occasionally holding suction." Maybe I will stick with Advanced Dental Education Programs Attended - anyone care to correct me on this - I'm open to suggestions.

Also, I was told in years past that you sent your CV to PASS and they sent copies to your programs with your app, but it doesn't look like they have you do that this year. Are you guys going to just take copies to interviews? I'm trying to find a spot to put everything from my CV onto PASS, but I feel like programs would generally like an original CV as well. Any thoughts?

armorshell - is it safe to assume you're going for OMFS?

Utah- I am pretty sure for pedo programs they require that you send in your CV when requested aka with the supplemental. go under the program search engines and the CV instructions are listed there.
