 So between medical school residency and now being attending, which is the hardest? Now for me by far has to be residency, mainly because your schedule as a resident is absolutely nuts, particularly in the field of internal medicine, where every four days I was doing a 28 hour shift within the hospital. It definitely takes a toll on you over the span of two to three years. In addition, I realized that not only is residency tough because you're learning new medicine and just always working with patients, you tend to get the most difficult and most complex patients for your learning purposes. As an attending now, I do find that yes, I have those head scratcher patients where I'm not exactly sure what's going on, but majority of the patients that I take care of are pretty straightforward. So I've seen them enough times, but as a resident, that wasn't the goal. You didn't want to always see the bread and butter you wanted to see those zebras so then you can better manage patients who have these exotic diseases. And so not only are you working long hours trying to master a language within medicine that you're not quite comfortable with, you're also getting the toughest patients. All of those put together makes residency the most difficult of all of those three.
