Ch 1.) Welcome!

"What Courses Should I Take in High School to Prepare for a Career in Forensic Science?" That is a question I am often asked. It is recommended by the American Academy of Forensic Sciences that you concentrate on obtaining a solid background in math and sciences. Courses they suggest are biology, chemistry, human anatomy, physics, and of course forensic science (if your school is lucky enough to offer it). They also suggest you take a composition or writing course since forensic scientists do a lot of writing as well. 1. Please discuss the reason(s) why you signed up for Forensic Science. 2. In chapter one we have discussed many fields of forensic science. Which do you find most fascinating? Explain.
