Sample Questions

Question 1
A death certificate lists 'cardiopulmonary arrest' as the cause of death. A forensic pathologist reviewing the certificate would correct this because:
Cardiopulmonary arrest is a mechanism of death, not a cause of death
The phrase is too specific
The certificate should only list manner of death
This is the correct entry
Question 2
The five manners of death recognized by the National Association of Medical Examiners (NAME) are:
Natural, Accident, Suicide, Homicide, and Undetermined
Expected, Unexpected, Sudden, Traumatic, Ill
Medical, Surgical, Pharmacological, Trauma, Unknown
Head, Chest, Abdomen, Extremity, Other
Question 3
A gunshot wound to the scalp shows a stellate laceration with soot deposit around and within the wound, searing of the wound edges, and the skin is torn outward. This pattern is classic for:
Distant-range gunshot wound
Intermediate-range wound with stippling
Hard-contact gunshot wound
Exit wound
Question 4
A gunshot entrance wound shows punctate reddish-brown abrasions (stippling / powder tattooing) around the wound, without soot deposit. The estimated range of fire is:
Contact
Close range (< 6 inches)
Intermediate range (approximately 6 inches to 2-3 feet)
Distant range (> 3 feet)
Question 5
Which feature best distinguishes an entrance gunshot wound from an exit wound?
Entrance wounds typically have a marginal abrasion (abrasion collar) due to rotating bullet scraping skin; exit wounds typically lack this feature unless shored
Entrance wounds are always larger than exit wounds
Exit wounds have soot and stippling
Entrance wounds are always on posterior body only
