How much detail is appropriate under the “experiences” section of ERAS?
You should have completed a professional CV by this time, using either bullet point statements or paragraph descriptions under your work and extracurricular experiences. It is appropriate to use the paragraph descriptions under your work and extracurricular experiences. It is appropriate to use the paragraph descriptions from your CV for your ERAS application. However, please be aware that the formatting for the ERAS application system is not as generous as your word processing application. ERAS only allows for plain text…no quote marks, bullet points, italics, etc. Be sure that your descriptions are clean and easy to read. if you used bullet points on your CV, you can simply list each item separately in the text as a list.
