Can anyone share his or her thoughts on UCSD prelim medicine? I interviewed there and it seemed ok, but several sources say it's a hardworking program and of little benefit if you're there for only one year.
Searching on SDN, there are a few threads about this but they have conflicting information and are several years old. I've heard a couple comments from these threads saying "it's getting better," but was wondering how much improvement has actually occurred.
I'm not from SD but have friends and family there, so I still haven't discounted the program just yet. I realize intern year isn't supposed to be a cakewalk so I'm willing to work hard to be in a good location near my friends and family... but I don't want to be at an unreasonably difficult program.
Any help appreciated!
