Is 25 min too long to commute for externships? Or is that average?
I went through a tank a gas every other day (sometimes every day) in my residency. Just listen to some good music, audiobooks, etc. and know it’s temporary 🙂Many externships my average was 70-80 minutes for commuting, with some places requiring as much as 2.5 hours for a commute.
I had only 1 externship where my drive was less than 30 minutes regularly.
Some days I wondered how I could be so tired, but then I remembered I had driven nearly 6 hours in a day on top of the surgery, clinic, academics, etc.
Driving fatigue is real.
just wait until residency starts lol.Some days I wondered how I could be so tired, but then I remembered I had driven nearly 6 hours in a day on top of the surgery, clinic, academics, etc.
I would live closer to those locations for residency so I’d be driving less. The externship location I chose was because it was free. Not everything is “wait until residency”.just wait until residency starts lol.
