Hi guys, 2 classes I want to take are held at the same time.
Any advice as to which to take? Epidemiology or Pathophysiology?
I'm interested in public health issues, but haven't done any research, so am leaning towards edidemiology; But pathophysiology seems really interesting too!

Your thoughts?

Thanks!
 
My wife is a dental student and she recommends to take any pathology you can before entering d-school. They took it 2nd yr and it was tough so any previous knowledge will help out.
 
I'm predental and applying to dschool now. I took bacterial pathogenesis my junior year and it actually turned out to be pretty helpful on the DAT (I got a 21 bio score). I'd recommend it...but then again I don't know much about epidemiology.

Cool! Good to know.
 
Yeah I would go with pathophys. I took it couple years ago and was interesting and helpful in understanding more how the body works.
