Hi senior members,
I would like to get a serious help on this issue. I have heard from several sources as well as on this forum that Yale pathology program is malignant or not worth it. Now I understand that any program that has very heavy workload is not likely to be popular unless it is Harvard or Hopkins, but given that it is in New Haven, has daily grossing cycle, is front-heavy, and a resident indicating to me during the interview that subspecialty sign-out schedules are so heavy that you don't get to preview the cases, let alone be able to read texts, I am really put off despite the fact that Yale as an institute sounds good.
Subspecialty sign-outs anyway have one disadvantage of forgetting what you learned over a period of time, and if you can not really read/preview/learn well, where does that lead to? What is your opinion?
I liked the PD, but am not sure such is the place I want to be. Any informed advice would help me a lot while ranking the programs.
Thank you.
