You will be learning/studying every day. Not sure there are any residencies where you only have to study on the weekends...
It's not like medical school where you're constantly studying for exams. In Ortho residency we only take one exam every year (OITE, an annual standardized test) but fellowships don't see the scores so its really more for you to see how you're progressing with your knowledge.
Studying in residency is different, there's not really any deadlines so you're studying to review for upcoming surgeries, to learn more about an interesting consult or to keep up with whatever rotation you're on.
Our program uses the Orthobullets.com curriculum so we get daily assigned reading topics which help to keep you up to date on the high yield Ortho knowledge.
Great question though, if you have any more questions feel free to DM our residency page @MontefioreOrthoResidency !

Our program also uses the OrthoBullets curriculum so I just try and do the topic per day and the associated questions (which could range from 5-80 depending on the topic). You also need to review/study for your next day cases. (oh, and as an intern you also gotta study for Step/Level 3)
