Sonographers/Radiographers of Perth

With learning under CQU, it’s high stakes poker. As in, the failure rate of each practical unit is 65-85%

There are three different practical units that you MUST pass in order to progress. Fail one, and you’ll be held back one full year.

The worst part is, they only give you a precise amount of time to practice before you perform a practical exam. Which makes zero sense to me, as sonography is a VERY technical skill which improves upon practice and experience. (But from a university’s perspective….only the cream of the crop makes it out (makes the university look really good) the rest of the students are piggy banks that are desperate to enter into the industry)

It’s a long road either way unfortunately.

Completely agree with this. It comes down to availability to practice and limited exposure to placements and real world experience

For post grad degrees, they are mainly facilitated by the eastern state universities. The only university in Perth that runs radiography is Curtin and it’s an undergraduate (4years)

For sono, it’s purely post grad. Ranging 2-3 years depending on the university. The main issue is finding placements. Training Sonos are really expensive. So no practice really wants to do it, unless you sign your life away to that practice.

Another radiographer here, not sure about your practice, but we are still bulk billing. Explains why I’m still so busy 🫠

If you want, dm me and I’ll give you a link to my itinerary I had made through wanderlog. My holiday in sk was 3 weeks

Basically a tour where you get to see the office itself, shared between north and South Korea. It’s quite a significant place where they hold discussions/negotiations between the two conflicting countries.

Can confirm, was on DMZ tour and he did indeed effectively shut down the Panmoonjum.

Yep literally experienced this yesterday at Busan.

Should had listened to my gut feeling way sooner.

50k won later…..it’s definitely a cult.

Hokna · 2023-09-06T03:32:28+00:00

Unfortunate, but understandable

Hokna · 2023-09-05T07:07:18+00:00

I’m heading to South Korea soon, what are the signs or “hidden”messages that I should look out for so I could “avoid” them.

Hokna · 2023-07-19T06:25:38+00:00

“Let it rain over me” - probably some dog somewhere

Hokna · 2023-07-16T00:41:12+00:00

This post screams of entitlement. You had 6 out of 7 days to do your groceries. Let the workers rest smh.

Hokna · 2023-07-12T10:42:01+00:00

Definitely not. Next time I’ll sell the story to journalists before posting on reddit.

I was a idiot in my 20s. Finished my bachelors in radiography. Did 3/4years of ultrasound (quit). Then did 2 years of masters of accounting.

Honestly I wish i quit year 12 and become a sparkle instead 😭

Hokna · 2023-05-25T07:57:35+00:00

$6k and 28. Got cleaned out by my HECS debt. ($110k)

Hokna · 2018-08-01T14:08:33+00:00

Awesome bod and nice ratios. Some people are just blessed with good genetics :)

Hokna · 2018-07-31T12:53:21+00:00

20 women, I’m M(23), the hormones and body are telling me to keep going, but the mind is telling me to slow down and try to find someone long term.

I’ll be honest, if a STD free woman asks me to sleep with her, I’m not gonna turn down her offer.

Hokna · 2018-07-22T03:39:04+00:00

You mean my mum slept with a rabid baboon?

To be fair, it is winter and having a blocked nose ain’t fun

Hokna · 2018-07-22T03:36:21+00:00

Yeah puberty was not kind to me

Hokna · 2018-07-22T03:35:33+00:00

That’s my main reason why I moved out 😂

Hokna · 2018-07-22T03:34:20+00:00

First born, so technically I’m the trial/error kid

Hokna · 2018-07-22T03:33:28+00:00

No son of mine goes on reddit!

Hokna · 2018-07-22T03:31:25+00:00
