A person must attend medical school and receive an MD or DO to become a pathologist in the U.S. There are a few medical schools with accelerated programs that allow students to receive both an undergraduate degree and a medical degree in less time and without as much of the stress of the usual medical school admissions process.Generally, a degree in chemistry or biology would have the most classes in common with prerequisites for medical school, but many undergraduate degrees would be acceptable. Engaging in undergraduate scientific research that involves pathology or pathogenesis would be helpful. A degree in microbiology would involve similar labor to a pathologist in terms of interpreting slides and understanding molecular disease process, but there is no experience with gross anatomy.
