Hype? It's an hour+ commute between East Bay and UCSF. All my friends doing a residency put in close to 80 hours a week at other facilities.
I'm not sure how that's remotely sustainable to waste that much time commuting.
- DrScump 10y agoIf it's purely wasted time, sure. If she has reading, research, or other "portable" work to do each day, however, commuting with somebody else doing the "driving" isn't wasted time at all. That's part of why I take Caltrain to SF whenever suitable.
- Retric 10y ago11 hours commuting a week + 80 hours working = 13 hour days 7 days a week.
- chaostheory 10y agoThe area south of SF (Daly City, South SF, San Bruno, and Pacifica) is still semi-reasonable in cost and there's no bridge to cross. The crime rates are also much better than East Bay (excluding Fremont). As a semi-general rule for crime in the SF Peninsula (with some exceptions), try to be west of 101 and El Camino Real. Ideally try to be west of 280 as well.
