i'm majoring right now in a nursing program getting my R.N so i have something to fall back on.
However i am getting a biological sciences minor. (yeah microbio)
and taking my requirements for organic chem, physics and pyschology (humanities)
however, i have no idea what to do after.
i guess the common term would be the coroner, but i want to be the medical examiner.
so if anyone knows ANYONE that can point me in the right direction because my school sucks at that.
i guess medschool. but what major? forensics, pathology.
anyone help, please & thank you.

find out if there are any internship programs for medical examiners. that would be a good way to get your foot in the door.

My Dad was a medical examiner for about twenty years. He went to medical school, yes, and his major was pathology. That would be the best "major".

Depends on the state also, I know in Kentucky you don't need any degree in anything medical. theres a course you take thru the state to obtain a license, thats about it sadly.
