Need Advice on Applying to Rad Tech Program

I’m 19 and I graduated high school in 2019 with (unfortunately) a 2.5 gpa due to depression hitting me hard, especially after my mom’s passing in 2017. My priorities were screwed up but I’m trying to get back on the right path now. I’ve been interested in getting my associates degree and becoming a rad technician through one of the several community colleges I’ve been looking into. The program generally seems to be quite competitive so I really want to do as much as I can to improve my chances of getting in. So, I was wondering, would it be helpful/worth it to gain clinical experience (and certificate or diploma) as a medical assistant for a year or two before applying to the radiography program? Or would A’s and B’s in my prereqs likely be enough to get me in? I haven’t taken my prereqs yet which I know I’m going to have to do before I apply, but when I do take them I’m going to be aiming for all A’s of course

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/
