What's people's take on smaller (2-3 spots) vs bigger (4-8 spots) programs?
For smaller programs--does that usually mean the services aren't that busy and that's why they don't need that many residents? Or that it may be busy, but they just work the residents harder and residents need to take more calls than other larger programs?
Also, if a co-resident for some reason takes time off during residency (ie for maternity leave or for some reason quits the program), does that mean the residents in the smaller sized programs tend to get screwed over more because there's less number of residents to cover for the missing person?
