Use all the free resources available to you from SDN: articles, guides, expert advising, forums discussions, and school research.
Try searching. This is probably the most commonly discussed topic here (unfortunately), and there are a few going that discuss this precise topic, one with some excellent detail.
If you are being recruited aggressively as a 1st or 2nd year resident in a particular specialty, you know you are in demand. At this time, no area remotely close to pathology save forensics is in demand. We do not need any more pathologists. If you find a place that needs more, pm me and I will take care of the problem personally.

Jobs and urologists seem to be the biggest topics here. THere are plenty of threads for both.
Maybe that means we all like jobs and d*cks?
I've heard the new CAP-approved Gross Pathology fellowship is hot right now...it even gives you credit towards being a PA.

Here are some good letters to the editor in CAP today back in 2005. Sure sounds familiar.....

I think they toss the word oncologic somewhere in the name of that fellowship, and you do not get credit towards becoming a PA.
I have long been pondering and debating about the most fitting adjective(s) for Pathology Dept. Chairmen, as a group, given their decades long view of future shortage of pathologists.
Anyone willing to opine?
Sarcasm?
I don't know if that's technically true but it is probably in the hospital's and the department's interest to keep the number of residents needed as high as possible because that will bring in cold hard cash from the government of the USA's medicare program in the order of anywhere from 100k to 200k per resident. Then on top of that, they have free labor to basically do the work on the medicare patients that they will bill again and get reimbursed at whatever rate, apparently it's a little less for hospital with residents. Basically, follow the money and don't get confused or freaked out by overly tanned chairmen
