Interview Experiences
 Breakfast/Intro
4 faculty interviews
Lunch
Tour
intro by PD and subspecialty representatives followed by 5 2on1 interviews or tour, day ends around 4 PM
Very early start, with intro from faculty in every department. 3-4 one-on-two interviews with faculty, and one with the PD, alone. Lots of down time with residents in meantime (too much down time?).

Program Disadvantages
Farmed out to Louisiana VA
? Resident happiness
mostly wealthy/insured patients, limited end stage pathology without county hospital, however residents rotate through several charity clinics; currently doesn't have a huge reputation;
Low cataract numbers; decent fellowship match
-Saturday lectures (whyyyy)
-strange India intro to phacos
-Busy call until 3rd year
-Share call with VA
Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary takes most of trauma, surgical numbers also compromised with IEEI
