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

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
