I want to work as an architect but I don't know if I will be able to afford a non-paid internship after college because I will certainly have loans to pay off.

What are the different places you did your residency and/or fellowship and how did it better prepare you for your Medical Examiner Certification ?

I'm currently a college freshman who wants to be a forensic pathologist. I understand that you don't always get residency in your direct field, so I would like to know some close options that would benefit me and better my knowledge for my career.

Is the process of going to college, med school, residency, etc., worth it, or is a safer career option a better decision financially?

I am a High School Senior, and have always wanted to be a doctor. I am struggling to decide between my state school (UMD), which is much cheaper, and UNC. At UMD, I would study engineering, giving up on my dream of becoming a doctor, while at UNC I would study biology on a pre-med track. #Spring25
