    Just throwing this out there, what she is talking about is in a hospital setting. If you work at an outpatient facility you don't have to deal with what she said.

    Thank you for this video with a lot of info. I just finished my Associate in Arts and now considering Radiology school or Spanish literature. Your pile of index cards reminded me of my last Geography class of 8 weeks and it was intense, draining and left me like a zombie lol. So the thing for me is either help people and make good income, or follow my creativity and learn literature. I already work in a major hospital and see everything on my ER shifts, but never deal with patients since Im in the cleaning dept. It takes a seasoned person to handle working at a hospital and again your video gave me a greater insight on the program Im considering.

    Hats off to you, I really want to get into my nearest program but they only accept a 60 student class every 2 years. They just accepted their most recent class this march lol. I’m gonna rack up my savings and I hope In 2 years I get accepted and have a nice enough savings to take time off work and focus primarily on studying

    Make sure the lateral sides of the breasts have lead coverage because a lot of lead vests are loose on the sides and have a lot of axilla exposure which increases breast cancer risk.

    Hi I would love to know how you studied the material. Personally i am a big pen and paper person so I don't do anything digital on an ipad. However, I end up writing pages and pages of notes for one chapter and I feel like it slows me down. Do you write pages and pages of notes, or only use flash cards, or what's your process from starting a new chapter/unit? Please be as specific as possible lol thank you so much?

      That’s why I suggest serving! You get money everyday instead of every 2 weeks, and it’s quick easy money.

    Hello there,
    before I moved to United States, I worked as radiologic technician in my country.
    I have more than 15 years experience in the radiology field.
    I was trained in Hospital and Clinic,
    I have certificate.
    now I would like to attend courses to become a licensed R.T in United States.
    I'd like to have advice from you, what should I do?

      Look at your school/program requirements. My radiology tech program only needs Anatomy and Physiology 1 and 2 with labs, English Comp 1, and Stats with a 2.7 GPA minimum

    Did you only use rad tech book camp for study for the board ? Or did you use other things .
    Did you study the questions in the learning lessons too ?

    Time consuming? For what degree? You need associates. Please clarify if you need more schooling. Clinical’s is like residency. I don’t get why it’s time consuming if every medical certification requires volunteer hours. Isn’t it worth it? Technicians depend on the type of test but it’s hard to learn because the terms are broken down.

      I think It depends on your clinical site. Most of the time they appeal it and you don’t need one, but I think it really depends.
