How bad is the sleep deprivation during medical residency?

Also, is it as hellish as I've heard in other respects, such as abuse, disrespect and cut-throat competition? I'm deciding between dentistry and medicine and the gauntlet of residency will be my deciding factor.

dentistry and medicine is of totally different field.. the process of becoming one... Residency maybe hellish.. but it has its good and bad.. here you'll really be push to your limits, get to know your inner self better and all those around you too.. And being a medical doctor is far different from being a dental doctor... good luck!!!

Depends where you do it. What country, residency position, etc.
