Programs with only 2 Residents on probation?

Postby Skeletal2009 » Wed Mar 12, 2008 9:32 pm

My program director mentioned at our residency fair that programs that have only 2 residents in training will most likely not be getting accreditation and will not be a good place to train and your experience as a Resident will be very limited.

Can anyone that goes to a small program or knows about this comment on this. I am interested in going to a small program and if this is really the case I may reconsider.

Any thought? Thanks in advance.
