The legendary clinicians come from 5 year residencies. Just saying...
It's an old meme from DocB from like 2006 or earlier.That west coast reference sailed over my east coast head
Yeah, I am a current resident at St John, and senior residents do 17 9 or 10 hour shifts per calendar month, and 2nd years do 19 per calendar month. Not sure when it changed but no one I have talked to ever mentioned doing that many shifts.This was several/many years ago, but St. John's in Detroit had third years doing 20 12s. Also, I think Newark-BI was 20x12 for third years.
I interviewed there, what, 16 years ago now. Things are looking up!!Yeah, I am a current resident at St John, and senior residents do 17 9 or 10 hour shifts per calendar month, and 2nd years do 19 per calendar month.

But 20 x 12 is the top end of the clinical hours allowed by the RRC.20 12’s? As a 3rd year?!! My goodness. My pgy1s work 20 9’s. Thats 60 less hours a month. No way would I want to end up at a program with 20 12s as a PGy1, let alone a PGY3.
Oh, no argument there, dude.I know. Doesn’t mean I’d want to work the maximum number of allowable hours. There’s more to residency than just clinical work.
