Tips from the AAMC
Don't forget to ask:
What programs exist for resident education?
Is there a possibility of protected time for research?
What teaching responsibilities of medical students are expected of residents?
What type of supervisory structure is in place?
How often are residents evaluated?
Are there any plans for changing the program size or structure?
Are meals paid for when on call?
How accessible is the faculty?
