A good residency program comes with at least a decent didactics program. I interviewed at several programs where there was no organized lecture time and it's hard to imagine how any accountability is given to the residents. At any rate, we have a very organized schedule. Of course, recent studies suggest it works only moderately well.
Our lecture series, and the board exam as it were, is based on a set of books published by the American Academy of Ophthalmology; all in all a few thousand pages of stuff. We read through the entire series each new year. So, all that said, this being the second year of residency, I am going through the entire set of books a second time. At first I thought this would make the reading easier to sit through. Easier to stay awake during.
It's not panning out so far.
