Unfortunately a common experience. While they don't tell you to lie, the system is set up to make that the only reasonable option. And even if they were holding to 80 hour max (open secret this limit is broken many places) it would still be too much for any job, let alone something high risk like a doctor in training. If you were on a plane with a pilot in training who'd worked almost 80 hrs and been up for 20 hours straight already, you'd rightfully be very concerned.
Don't forget mandatory resiliency lectures after your 24 hr shift to really rub it in and gaslight you that all of this is somehow your fault.
