Probably true, because 80-90% of people wouldn't finish their residency/fellowship until they are 38 or so. Great way to solve the job shortage problem by reducing supplies.

OMG!

Cyan, have you been talking to my dad?

Anyway, if your complaints of pathologists doddering on in practice until their 80s are correct, I have a long and enjoyable career ahead of me.

I went into gen surg because I thought it was the best of all possible worlds-- you got to be a diagnostician and an interventionalist. Well, the interventionalist half is certainly true but it wasn't as alluring as I thought. You can't know that as a med student because all you're drooling over as a student is the chance to do something, anything, in the OR or in the ER.

Well that's all the immature arrogant gunners drool over anyway.
