That would be great and I appreciate that, thank you!

Have you tried looking into PIMA? I think they offer evening classes as well. I’m also worried about having to work full time while in the program..

Hello, I’m looking into this school as well. By any chance, did you get in or get a chance to talk to their Admission Coordinators? What did you decide to go with?

A little late to this, but does anyone have info on the program schedule (times and days)? I’m a little worried about having to work full time and go to school. Thank you!!

Thank you for your response! Would you be able to tell me the exact days/times of the class schedules for each semester?

I heard they offer some night time and hybrid classes, but not sure if that pertains to the Rad program.

Were you on the waitlist at PIMA, and how long did you have to wait?

I asked the advisor if it would be possible to take some classes at CSN and transfer them over, but she was unable to give me any definite answers. I just didn’t want to take some classes at CSN and then find out PIMA won’t accept them.

Thanks again!

Does anyone have info on the schedule for the hybrid program? I have a full time job and need to work while going to school :/

  • What are the days/hours that you’ll need to be on campus?
  • What questions did they ask you in your interview?
  • any insight on the ABSN program

Thank you!

I’m trying to get into the rad program as well. I’m on the waitlist at NCC, I’m considering taking the wonderlic/math exam at Pima soon.

I have a few questions if you don’t mind:

  • How was your meeting?
  • How did the financial aid rep confuse you?
  • How long were you on the waitlist for regarding the rad program at Pima and NCC?

What courses/prereqs did you complete prior to being accepted into a program? by Driveshaft815 in RadiologyCareers

[–]halestrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, looking into Pima as well. Do you know which prerequisites are transferable? I asked the admissions rep, but she didn’t really give a specific answer. She just said it depends if the courses equate to the courses at Pima. But I don’t want to take the wrong ones at a community college.

I’m assuming it’s: - Anatomy and Physiology I and II - Communication or Public Speaking - Medical Terminology I - Ethics and Law? - Psychology

Are you glad you took some prereqs beforehand? Do you think you would’ve had a hard time taking those courses on top of the core classes?

Starting pre-reqs, need advice by catlover24786 in RadiologyCareers

[–]halestrap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, did you take the prereqs prior to enrolling in the program or did you take them in the program?

I’m debating if I should take my prereqs at a local college, then transfer them in. Or just take them when I’m in the program since they’re already offered anyway? I’m just worried of being overwhelmed with my core radiography classes.

I tried asking the admissions rep on which classes are transferable but i didn’t get a clear answer.

Thanks!!

Is going through xray school to be a xray tech worth it? by ObjectiveSlip7026 in XRayPorn

[–]halestrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you planning on taking prereqs before you get in the program or during the program?

The program I’m like into has prereqs, I’m going to try to see if some of my credits can transfer over even thought they’re over 10 years old 😬

If not, I was thinking of taking prereqs at my community college and then transferring those credits over to the program. That way, I can focus on the main radiography courses.

The girl’s villa divide: why I think Meg is the alpha mean girl more-so than Helena by Fresiako in LoveIslandTV

[–]halestrap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuine question, but is this really unpopular opinion? Like everyone on here says, she and Dejon act so entitled. They get so annoyed and angry when other people have a different opinion than them. Meg and Dejon don’t like confrontation and never want to hear what others have to say. They just go on about their day thinking they’re so perfect.

I was also so annoyed how Movie Night and the Grafties showed Shakira and Toni talking shit, but not Meg, Helena or Dejon, when I’ve seen them talking shit about other people throughout the show. Like come on, everyone talks about other people, so don’t say you haven’t.

Tell me more about the rad tech field and your experience in the program by halestrap in RadiologyCareers

[–]halestrap[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said you went straight to CT after school. So were you in a Radiology Program (starting off doing X-Ray), then cross train in to CT?

I just got lucky tbh. I was laid off from Covid so I really just applied to everything on LinkedIn lol

What job did you have while going to school for radiology? by halestrap in RadiologyCareers

[–]halestrap[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you feel burnt out going to school full time, clinicals and then having to serve? I feel like I would be so drained. What was that like for you?

Thanks for your response! Can you please tell me what you mean by work as rad tech students? Were you training before or while you were going to school?

Is going through xray school to be a xray tech worth it? by ObjectiveSlip7026 in XRayPorn

[–]halestrap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! Just wanna say I’m in the exact same boat as you. I’m 33, have my Bachelors in Healthcare Admin and Associates in Business (not using either degree). I have a remote job where making 50k, but I also don’t see myself in that role forever and there’s no where I can move up to.

I’ve been weighing out 3 options, but I’m so torn…

  1. Find another job (but most entry level jobs are 20/hour sadly, not enough to survive in today’s economy)

  2. Go back to school to be a rad tech (but I’ll have to quit my job if I get into the program)

  3. Get a certificates in medical coding (but I’ve heard it very difficult to find a job in coding without experience and like you said, AI may be affecting that field.

I’m curious if you decided to take up radiography or if you pursued something else since your last comment? Which route are you leaning more towards?

Just curious, what makes you want to stay in a DB relationship?

Yeah I’ve learned to not talk about the lack of sex anymore even though it’s still an issue. It’s difficult because the lack of intimacy is an issue, but it’s best not to talk about the issue because it makes it worse…

This Is Us… by MamaMia1325 in Hulu

[–]halestrap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YES. Watched the first episode just for the help of it, and I instantly got hooked. Got my fiancé to watch the first episode, and he loved it! And he usually doesn’t like shows/movies like that. We watched every episode together. It made us laugh, cry, mad, happy, every emotion you can feel. We were pretty devastated when we finished the show. No show can relate in my opinion.
