The new REPAYE program complicated the decision about whether or not to refinance as a resident. The 50% interest subsidy basically lowers your interest rate during residency, and the effective rate might even be lower than you can get from a private company.
Student loans really suck. But starting in 2013 refinancing them became possible again.
