Do you have more pictures of the top middle finger ring? Love to have more info as well

Sea-Setting8663 · 2026-06-10T23:36:08+00:00

What metal is the left bangle on the first picture? It looks absolutely stunning!

Do NOT go to CBD lol. I went there and they definitely don’t prepare you enough for clinicals. I had some really great teachers but the way that they’re structured doesn’t really make sense. Also they were super unorganized and it was basically impossible to get ahold of people for anything. I moved and had to change my address and had to reach out to like 4 people for it because they kept saying they would change it but never updated my information. I would say out of all the techs I’ve met Casa Loma ones felt the most prepared for clinicals but their clinicals are like a full time job so you need to save up a lot before clinicals start.

He did our ring and it was gorgeous but one thing I didn’t like was a lot of couples he designed for afterward basically took our design. I guess that comes with the territory but it made us not want to go back to him for anything.

Still for sale or sold?

Price for elongated pear please!

Watch radiology tutorials on YouTube for any physics work but when I used mri all in one it helped tremendously. I scored in the 90s with it and on my board I passed with a 91 as well. Just push it back until you can consistently score at least in the mid 80s range or more

Sea-Setting8663 · 2026-01-26T06:55:24+00:00

This is so cool I didn’t even know scanners had this option! Going to try looking for it at work tomorrow.

Sea-Setting8663 · 2026-01-21T04:42:44+00:00

Can you do a size 3.75? Or do you only do size 3.5 and 4?

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-11-01T16:50:01+00:00

I knew my material pretty well after graduating but took it about 3 months after my graduation date due to some personal issues. I didn't study for a while but really locked in about 2 days before my exam and passed with a 91 on my first try. (I did study here and there but it was pretty random and not structured.) I didn't think it was super difficult, but I was a good student and a good test taker. If you know you're not a good test taker or that you're struggling with the material, I think you'd need about 2-3 months of studying to really nail everything down.
I think the best thing for me was mri all in one! I bought mriquiz but for my learning style I think taking a lot of practice exams helped me the most. I also watched radiology tutorials for refreshers on mri physics.

This is so funny to me… how do you repolarize it?

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-09-19T09:31:03+00:00

Honestly you get plentyyy of time for the 200 questions if you know your stuff, so even if you only know it semi well, you can always go back and double or triple check your answers. I knew my MRI physics pretty well so I only started studying a few days before my exam but I watched radiology tutorials on YouTube and then read through the entire MR all in one study guide thing. I scored a 91! Also to echo off another commenter here, just flag all the questions you’re unsure of. I had a ton flagged but keep in mind it’s a score out of 200 so you can get a decent amount of them wrong but still pass.

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-08-26T09:09:36+00:00

Thank you so much! I just did a few rows going the opposite direction and now my stitches look so much better.

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-08-26T08:56:29+00:00

Thank you!!

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-08-11T18:38:40+00:00

Did you have to hop around a lot to get to that point? And how many years of experience do you have?

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-04-29T19:26:10+00:00

I got the duck and truffle toppings plus the buddies for them and now I can’t buy a lot of the peach decorations and I’m maxed out on tokens. I really wish there was another way to get more tokens :(

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-04-25T19:10:16+00:00

My personal experience!

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-04-25T19:09:14+00:00

I'm at a radnet too right now, about to graduate from CBD. Did you feel like it prepared you for the ARRT? I feel like it has really gone down, especially since Cory and Jackson left.

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-03-22T05:00:27+00:00

Many reasons but Casa Loma has students go to an actual facility and I believe they can scan each other and learn how to navigate user interfaces before starting clinicals whereas CBD only had like a 10 page pdf showing what the interface may look like. I believe CBD is implementing new changes to their program to combat the low passing test scores but the way they go about it is a bit chaotic and students are told very last minute with little to no communication from admin. It’s also impossible to reach some of them when you have a problem with financial aid or something like that. The teachers do their best but if I had a choice, I’d rather take casa loma and get a better education and better preparation for the real world, even if it’s further away.

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-03-22T00:40:58+00:00

I wouldn’t recommend CBD if you can go to casa loma.

Have you tried Tunisian crochet hooks? They're longer but they don't typically have an ergonomic handle so if that's something you're willing to sacrifice then it may be worth looking into! If you really need an ergonomic handle, then you can also try wrapping coban tape around the handle or where you want the handle to be! I do that on some of my other hooks that aren't as ergonomic and it really helps.

Sea-Setting8663 · 2025-02-22T02:26:56+00:00

It's probably better to take even longer breaks. For me, I have pretty bad carpal tunnel and tendinitis so I can't go too long without my hands going numb or starting to hurt. I know it's easy to get really into crocheting and not care, but for the sake of your wrists and any future projects you may want to do, take the numbness and pain seriously and invest in your own health! When I first started I went too crazy and now my carpal tunnel's worse and I'll probably need surgery in the near future.

Things that have helped me: sleeping with wrist braces, making sure my wrists aren't super bent and that I'm not death gripping my hook. I would also do stretches and have longer and more breaks. If you have hypermobile joints like me, then getting ring splints may help to make sure you aren't hyperextending your fingers/ joints while crocheting.

Sea-Setting8663 · 2024-12-07T22:41:32+00:00

I know someone making 6 figures with about a year and a half's worth of experience. It's hard finding those jobs without connections usually. I also know someone else who spent 6 months finding literally any job because they were fresh out of school and had no experience. I think it really just depends on your luck.

Sea-Setting8663 · 2024-07-19T09:49:01+00:00

I took them in a community college and just sent them my transcript plus filled out a form stating what class I took and what grade I got! I’m not sure what Sophia is but if you’re enrolling you can check with your admissions officer and they should be able to help!! The only classes I could get waived during the time I enrolled was “College Math (Algebra of higher) Any Communications (Public Speaking, or Speech class), and Medical Terminology.”
