Forensic science for non native speaker

Hi, I´m interested in forensic science since I was 12 years old. I think I could handle studies, but I have read that when you want to work with the police, you have to be good in speaking and writing. Do you think I can make it when I´m non native speaker? Could I be good in doing it in foreign language? Thank you in advance for your answer. #Forensic

What would be a reasonable salary range to expect if I entered forensic science? What is the long-term potential?

I have applied to several schools for Forensic Science, one is West Virginia University, which has the #1 Forensic program in the country ... its programs partner includes the FBI, in fact, 80% of their graduates are hired by the FBI. And I was accepted to WVU, however, I'm really not aware at all of what a starting salary would be for someone working for the FBI at entry level would be or even what to expect long-term. #forensic #college-major #college-selection #WestVirginiaUniversity

What are the best majors to take if aiming to become a forensic pathologist?

I'm trying to plan how to become a forensic pathologist but I'm having some trouble in choosing a major. I understand that a doctorate is needed but the only information that I can find on majors says that a bachelor degree in science is needed. Is there any benefit to certain science majors than others? The main recommended science major seems to be biology but is there any difference if someone takes a different related science such as physiology? #college-major #majors #forensic #forensic-pathology #career-details
