Hello.

I am considering specialising in Pathology. How does Pathology compare to other specialities in level of difficulty and lifestyle?

Thanks for any input.

As far as "difficulty" that's fairly subjective. Every person will, due to their makeup and style of learning, find different areas more difficult than others. Pathology has an incredible wealth of information however. It isn't easy.

Residency, you work hard but minimal call...no intern year...yay!

Lifestyle is fine...there are worse lifestyles out there in medicine.

Difficulty...probably one of the more difficult fields due to the immense amount of information to master.
