How does this differ from Forensic medicine? -- Jussi-Ville Heiskanen 16:37, Jan 25, 2004 (UTC)
[edit] my question
i am currently a student in high school looking to go into forensic pathology and i would like to know the basics. what is the most difficult and what is the easiest.
- Get into the best college you can get into. Study a pre-medical curriculum and get grades of B or better. Then apply to medical school. Your specialty will fall into place from there.
- Patrick Sweet, M.D.
I am in highschool as well and I really feel that forensic pathology is the job I want to go into. I have a GPA of 3.5 and rising, I am getting invovled in HOSA (Health Occupation Students of America), BETA (a club for students with a GPA of 3.5 and above), the debate team, and spanish club. I come from a long line of people in the medical field and I have always known that I would go into it as well. If you wouldn't mind sending any information on pathology to my email address: sourdow91@bigstring.com I would be very greatful. Alisha Smith, 15
- I created a section called Becoming a forensic pathologist and added a few external links that go through the details. It is sorta disappointing that none of the larger pathology organizations (e.g. Canadian Association of Pathologists, College of American Pathologists (CAP), American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP)) have a nice description of the path one has to follow to pathology -- forensic or otherwise.
