Pittsburgh has historically been a great operative program. Haven't seen anything to change that. Lots of great faculty to work with. A resident could have nicer housing in Pittsburgh vs many other cities due to the low cost of living.
howabout we talk about other programs we get it pitts got pros and cons some people love it some people hate it and one random poster hates immigrants

Does anyone have thoughts on Texas programs? I've heard in Houston, UT residents have the worst hours, Methodist is in the middle, with Baylor considered "cush" by comparison
A reasonable way to calculate; look at the # of residents per year and the # of beds that they cover. Generally, if you are covering at a ratio of more than 1 resident:500 beds per year, you will have time to do other things. If you are in a 2 resident/year program with a responsibility for 2000 beds across 4 hospitals, you will be very busy clinically.
