The job market being closed for pathology is an Internet myth propagated by I have no idea. There are jobs, but it is a field where jobs come via networking. Every Fellow graduating from programs I visited has jobs lined up.
It is the BEST specialty. I can assure you. I switched VERY late (after applying for another specialty) but I realized this is where I need to be.
Job marketing being closed for pathology is true only if you are intent in staying in only one, competitive location. It's also important to mention that everyone in path now does at least one subspecialty, often 2, even 3.
If you have FA with you during Step 1, you could probably score 250-260.
That's stretching it don't you think? It doesn't matter if you have all your board prep with you if you don't know what to look for.
