If you are currently chief resident (as an additional year), do you mark your residency period as continuous or as two different training periods.

For example, would you mark Residency 2020-2024 or 2020-2023 + 2023-2024 (Chief year)?

Four years ago I either did it separate or as a work experience, I can’t recall.

I would probably not do it as one big block just so it doesn’t look like your training was extended but either way they will figure it out.

Usually two training periods, but either is fine. Writing it as two makes it more clear you were a chief

Nobody will care either way as you'll likely describe somewhere in your application that you did a +1 chief year
