This varies greatly by specialty. Surgeons (and anesthesiologists) are working 80 hours/week or more. Most non surgical specialties are well under 80. Pediatricians, dermatologists, psychiatrists and a handful of others probably average around 50 hours/week over the entire residency, with another 10 hours/week of home study (equivalent to a developer reading technical articles from hacker news & stackoverflow).
