I was just flipping through residency forums and they're talking about waking up at 4:30am getting to the hospital by 5:00am to do pre-rounds before grand rounds at 6:00am then after that working all day 'til 'bout 7-9pm.
1) I can't even comprehend getting up so early. My earliest class this fall is at 11am 4 days/wk, 4 classes (all science though), no job (volunteering), and sleeping (I mean studying).
2) As much as I know I'll love being a doctor in whatever field I choose, working 16 hrs/day 6 days/wk making $8/hr (after tax) just doesn't seem so enticing.
Or maybe I'am just lazy (yes, I am).
Any thoughts!!
