I have been a long time lurker but decided to post a few questions to this great forum.
For some reason, I have been under the impression that Family Medicine residency generally is less intense than many other specialties. I've been interviewing recently and many of the residents are commenting about how for almost all of intern year and many months during 2nd year they are working 80 hours a week.
I am not afraid of hard work but was fairly surprised by this. Is it the norm?
