You can.
I put it under work experience as one paragraph - describing what we did as interns.
AND I got 4 interviews.
Don't listen to anybody. Do it your way.

Hi uday! I'm also thinking about it...We're on the same boat. ERAS people don't know it either. They said let's use our best judgement. Will it affect our application if we place it under work experience? If anyone knows, pls help. I tried putting it under medical education, but it does not seem to fit in. I remembered one program coordinator said in the other forum that the most important thing is that we list it down... but the question then was not about internship training. Anyone in the same situation who had submitted his/her CAF and received interview calls, or anybody else who can help, pls reply. We'll appreciate it. Thanks!
