•Magree, have you noticed a trend of people interested in both psych and path? There seems to be a personality type that is interested in pursuing one or the other of these fields (i have been informally surveying people
)
Mindy•••••That's interesting. Quite a while ago, a Myers-Briggs Type Indicator showed one of the types self-selecting psychiatry and pathology among their top 3 specialties.
Personally, I think a choice of specialty can be chosen based on the party test:
When attending a party, I enjoy:
A. Meeting new people, maintaining and fostering relationships with people I already know, listening to them and, when appropriate, offering my experience and expertise to help them to solve problems in order to lead fulfilling lives.
B. Having the guests assume awkward positions while manually probing their bodily orifices.
C. Administering chemicals to the guests until they lose consciousness
D. Skipping the party altogether, and viewing radiographic images or disembodied necrosed tissue of the guests.
E. Using sharp instruments to remove vital organs from fellow partygoers.
