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.
