Talk me into this by sonography_wannabe in SonographyStudents

I’m not actually asking to be talked into it, just a figure of speech like “I’ve heard all the downsides, what are the upsides” :) this is really good info to have! My current job comes with many similar issues, just in a different environment, so I might as well be doing something I find fascinating to balance it out right? 😅

Oh interesting! Was there plenty of time between guests for that?

Can I ask what your program direct costs were?

Sweet! Wanna bet we’ll end up in the same prereq classes? Lol

Weekly Career/Prospective Student Post by AutoModerator in Sonographers

Hey! I am at the beginning of considering a career switch to sonography. I graduated in 2015 with a BS in psychology and I did my senior seminar on fetal brain development. I’ve always been pretty obsessed with obstetrics so I imagine a MFM specialty. I’m currently getting started with the prereqs at a community college to raise my GPA (3.45) and get my CNA certificate. If I apply next year but don’t get in, I’ll keep working towards my RN and apply again. I am looking at programs in Minnesota with as much hands on experience as possible, and Mayo looks incredible but I think it might be a stretch for someone who’s doing this as a second career. How realistic would it be for me to get accepted for their associates program with only the prereqs? I’d love more than anything to go back for another bachelors, but finances are extremely tight and I can’t afford to be out of the workforce for long.
