Asking Current Interns About Experiences

I'm prepping for match and I really wish I could hear more about experiences of current interns. Is it odd to ask programs for contact info of current interns? I don't want to be pushy.

There is time during the interview process at the majority of sites to speak with current interns about their experience. I'd personally wait until then.

I would wait as well. Every interview that I attended (and that others I knew also attended) provided plenty of time to talk with the current interns. I would say that in most cases, they almost give you TOO much time to chat with them, as I felt pressured to keep asking questions for a full hour/hour and a half in many cases.

Cool! Thanks for the replies
