forensic pathology

Read a random definition: planned obsolescence

A quick definition of forensic pathology:

Forensic pathology is a type of medicine that helps figure out why someone died. It looks at diseases and problems in the body that may have caused the person's death. This helps solve crimes and figure out what happened in accidents or other incidents where someone has died.

A more thorough explanation:

Forensic pathology is a type of medical practice that deals with investigating the cause of death in cases where it is unclear or suspicious. It involves examining the body and interpreting evidence to determine the cause of death, especially in cases where a disease or disorder may have played a role.

For example, if a person dies suddenly and unexpectedly, a forensic pathologist may be called in to perform an autopsy and determine the cause of death. They may examine the body for signs of disease or injury, collect samples for testing, and analyze the results to determine the cause of death.

Another example would be in cases of homicide, where a forensic pathologist may be called upon to examine the victim's body and determine the cause of death. They may look for evidence of trauma, such as gunshot wounds or blunt force injuries, and use this information to help build a case against the perpetrator.

Overall, forensic pathology plays an important role in the justice system by providing crucial evidence in cases where the cause of death is unclear or suspicious.

Feelin a bit stressed, as I've got no date change for Michigan either despite applying 10/7

I have not had a date change either for Mich but I've seen people get in without one so who knows
I applied 9/25 to like 6 schools and some (Houston) have no date change yet so dw
soapy
9:46
But do people get in without addresses going long?
WorthlessAttractiveZombie
9:46
it's tough to tell because a lot of people type out their addresses long to begin with
soapy

Ah. I didn't. Looking back, my Mich supplement kind of sucks, so there's that

The "date changes" at Michigan really don't mean anything. We had to do them in undergrad admissions whenever a Georgia applicant picked the country instead of the state, because we'd have to remove the TOEFL requirement and reassign the application from the international application readers.
soapy

Classy, does that mean they may look at your application, and that look doesn't necessarily trigger any date change?

What a good day to get into law school

@soapy: I don't know for sure about the law school. For undergrad, once the application is complete, it's assigned to a reader the following Monday. If we had to make any changes, it's because a reader saw something that needed to be changed and the application needed to be re-read after that change.
soapy

Ahh, got it. Thank you for the insight!

You're welcome. FWIW, I have no idea what's up with the address changes. We didn't have to do any of that, except for the Georgia state vs country kinds of things.
soapy

I've heard it theorized that some schools will change the address from "St." --> "Street" as they prepare to send out admissions packets. That's the rumor, anyways.
i think it just indicates a change in status like under review or stages of review
my stanford address went long as soon as it was marked complete lmao
soapy
10:25
I saw some Reddit adcom say that they can see any time we refresh the status checker; I wonder if it's a red flag if an applicant's checked it like 50 times in a day?
soapy
10:25
Also, can we send another LoR to a school that we've already applied to?
soapy
10:26
Or another essay?
10:30
i'll allow it
