What is the difference between the preliminary and categorical interns’ schedules?
We make no distinction between one-year and three-year residents when making the schedule. The schedules are virtually identical, since our goal is to provide the best training possible, regardless of future plans. The only difference is that preliminary interns do not have a mandatory continuity clinic. It is expected that any intern who completes our preliminary training program would be competent to continue on in internal medicine.
