<p>aparent-
Hard to compare the time committment of the two training programs, especially since psych internships/postdocs vary inthe type of training setting they are in.It may be in a medical center (like mine was) which asmany of the similar rigors to med school, or it may be in a community mental health center or university health center.those are different settings with different levels of intensity. The MDs call schedule may be unreasonable, but (1) they make a lot more $ than psychology interns so may not neet to supplement income and (2) they don’t typically have to go home and write long reports/diagnostic evaluations on their patients on top of writing other research papers. Both fields have pretty arduous paths.</p>
