Hey all,

I've learned from my third year experience that I get the most out of a rotation with small teams; for example, our med rotations are made up of 1 attending/1 senior/2 interns/2 students. I have noticed in researching some programs that teams can swell to double that size! Other non-medicine clerkships had teams of this caliber, and I personally found the teaching to be below what I expected. Anyone have experience maybe with both small and large medicine teams who might be willing to share their opinions of each? Thanks!
 
In my experience it's very dependent on attending, residents, students, and patient load.
