The bane of my existence

So, I am in my last week of pre-req classes so I can apply for the rad tech program at my school.

So far so good! Got a 4.0 in some classes but the bane of my absolute existence at the moment is college algebra. A&P lecture and lab are difficult but so awesome to learn and so far I'm doing pretty well with a 101% and 95% respectively. I haven't done any math, prior to March of this year, since high school in 2011. I crammed for the entrance exam and somehow passed but had to take intermediate because I was ONE POINT off from the cut. Got a 4.0, but now that I'm in college algebra, it's really rough on me. I'm honestly a bit worried for my chapter exam and my final exam that is only 2 days later.

My question is, what is the kind of math I can expect in the course, granted I get in? Is it similar to algebra or is it something completely different? Physics was never my strong suit, but I passed. I half blame it on the teacher in high school, because when the students weren't making her cry, she was yelling at them to calm down, so not too much learning was actually going on.

I'm sorry for the long post, but now I am having some doubts as to actually sticking with the program, again, granted I actually get in. Following rad school I wanted to get into MRI, and possibly radiation therapy. But I know for sure that will be a LOT of physics.

Onetonline salary search change?

Did this change? I am having a hard time finding the same lists I saw 2 months ago. https://www.onetonline.org/link/summary/29-2034.00#AdditionalInformation https://www.onetonline.org/link/localwages/29-2034.00?st=OR&p=hourly I used to be able to see wage by area and sort it by state and see the differences per state and per city in every state. I can't seem to find this same list anymore. I can see a bell curve but I can't sort by state or wage or anything.

Question regarding ultrasound

Hello radiologists, I have a quick question regarding ultrasounds of the scrotum. (Not asking for medical advice just wondering about something). I’ve done an ultrasound of the scrotum and the radiologist only took pictures of the right side of the testicle and then the left side but not in between so my question is, do ultrasounds show all “angles” of a testicle or does the device need to be held at various areas to show a full testicle? Because if only one side of the testicle is seen then wouldn’t the other side be as important in diagnosing something?
