Hey guys, I'm applying for path residency as an IMG this year.
As an IMG I know beggars can't be choosers, but I was wondering what are some decent/good programs that don't/are less likely to have you working long hours as a first year and/or second year? I know specific services can have you working varying hours of course. For as much as I love pathology, I also love my hobbies and free time.
some path fellow at the hospital I go to mentioned when they interviewed at a hospital in Chicago, they noticed all the residents have a schedule from 9am to 5pm. But he said this isn't generally a good thing, because that's an indicator that the program doesn't see many cases. How true is this?
