My program is 24 months and a failing grade for us is 78 and under. But I just had my last day of my first quarter! I definitely psyched myself out thinking it would be extremely hard, but I managed to pass with A's! To anyone reading this it really is not difficult if you just study!
As a Radiologic Technologist since 2007 to all of you aspiring Technologist Do it! There is a huge demand for us! And its not getting any better. Also If you are having trouble getting a job after getting your ARRT , consider moving . Today I travel twice a week to different states to educate and train Technologist and I can tell you from personal experience after visiting hospital after hospital There is so much demand Good Luck future Technologists!
Really do appreciate it, haven't decided on this from dropping my computer science degree, but it's good to hear that there's possible jobs in this after other people on reddit said the opposite.
I love your videos! I’m currently a second year student. I find that there’s not many videos on RUclips about x-ray..there’s a ton of nursing ones it’s about time someone makes some about x-ray! 😊
You will likely need to have an ACT score and high school diploma to apply to most colleges, but you will have to research that for your specific school. There are radiologic technology programs offered at four-year universities for a bachelor's degree, or a two-year degree at community college's (which is what I am pursuing) for an associates in applied science degree.
My program earned me a bachelors degree! I went through 1 year of prerequisites and 3 years in the program. It was 2 years focused on X-ray, and then the last year was a modality (mine was MRI). I stayed in X-ray clinic once a week, and the rest of the week we had MRI clinic. The University of Iowa offers an online AS to BS degree if you were interested in furthering your degree in MR, CT or CVI! Otherwise there are always jobs out there that offer cross training!
My prerequisites were Anatomy and physiology + lab, chemistry + lab, physics + lab, algebra, English 101, medical terminology, communications and 100 hours of shadowing a radiologist technologist
Robertson Thirdly i really wanna do rad but my parens are against it :( so idk what i wanna be they assume the raditation will hit me back isnt that crazy? Or maybe over protective?
Your videos have saved this girls life! I am a first gen college student who hasn't had anyone to turn to. I truly went in to my college experience blind and have had to adapt & learn as I go. These videos have helped me navigate this process. I am proud to say that I just got my official acceptance into my program a week ago. With my excitement also comes nervousness, but thankfully I can watch your videos to know what to expect moving forward. Thanks for putting in the time & effort to help people like me!
Yay! You're right, there aren't many videos about becoming a rad tech. I'm finishing my pre-reqs and just got admitted into the program for the summer start. So excited!
I went through the Army for my training. It was nothing like a 2 year tech program, and literally only lasted me a year. The stuff these students go through now, I don’t envy one bit! 👍😎
Im stuck in between going to the army like you did or just do community college to become x ray tech. Was it more difficult since they’re cramming in more material in a shorter period of time? Did you have to do the same pre requisites?
@@Soychica13 this is late and a little different than your question. I was in the air force and became an ultrasound technician rather than mri/xray I would definitely have chosen radiology in the air force if I could go back though haha But I liked having the hands on experience the job gives through the military. Tech school was definitely tough because we had to learn so much so fast, but I definitely found it to be worth it. I like having the military experience background and I was able to immediately get a job working for the VA even before getting registered, since they knew me and knew that I could do the job already. Really depends on what path you want to take though. Army is probably a good bit different than air force and physically also, you definitely have to be even more fit. (If thats a concern for you)
@@bethanyrose9026 Hey Bethany, I have a quick question for you if you could answer for me. When you were signing up for the Air Force did you tell the recruiter the specific MOS you wanted, or did you get diagnostic imaging through an open contract?
The reason I found your channel was because I looked up day in a life of a x-ray tech since I am going into that field. I fell in love with your channel and your personality after watching your college day in my life videos. ❤️❤️❤️
I really appreciated this video. I was most recently the past 3 years in hospitality as a flight attendant and loved it, but after my grams died my life changed and now I am looking into the medical field. Even at my age you can still change your life, thanks for the inspiration girl and all the tips. You have a new subbie! Much success and luck to you!! XX
I just finished my first semester of RT school!! I love watching your videos to reflect and see my progress vs yours. I have heard (from my teachers and 2nd year students) the first semester is The hardest semester in the program. Because everything is so new and foreign for us. My grading scale is similar to yours! 74 and below is considered a failing grade at my program. Thank you for all your videos 😬😁
congratulations! In my personal experience, the second semester was the hardest for me because of the complexity of the exams we were learning & I had an extra online class! best of luck to you in your program!
Keep going girl! I graduate from a bachelors program X-ray in May!!! I LOVE X-ray!! It’s such a great field. And I’m so glad you are loving it! Good luck 👩🏼🎓🙌🏻😍
I'm currently studying economics but the career as a rad tech caught my attention recently. That's the first comment that i could relate to :) i'd be very thankful if you share your experience❤️
I am starting a LMRT w/ MA Skills program. I am married, a mom of 3, and a disabled veteran from the Army and OMG I am so skeptical but excited to get started.
It's really cool following in their footsteps because all of my instructors, one of the radiologists, & some of the techs know my parents! I'm definitely my parent's little shadow 😂☺️
I start my xray program in August and this was so helpful and interesting! Thank you.... you’re right, there are not many videos on RUclips about this topic!
Just finished my program and passed the ARRT exam. Rad school was strenuous at times but was worth it in the end. Good luck with rad school! Great video.
I’ve been doing lots of ‘research’ on RUclips about becoming a rad tech and your video and q&a was by far one of the best! Thank you! I was very nervous to look into it but now excited to start my journey
THANK YOU for posting this video! I have been searching for a good RUclipsr or videos for rad techs, and you’re the first one I came across! I am currently applying to a program in Colorado that sounds very similar to the one you are currently in (: in our application process they go off of grades, an essay, employer referrals, character reference referrals and a panel interview of 8 judges! I just got the call at the beginning of the week that I got my interview, so fingers crossed all goes well. But I loved your video and found it very informative. And I look forward to watching more radiology videos from you! (: once again thank you for posting content like this!
Super interesting to hear how your program varies from mine! Thank you so much for watching, & I'm so glad you found it helpful :) good luck with your application!
Ohmar I just found out that I have been accepted! But they asked me a lot of behavioral based questions. Like why I want to be in this program, how I prioritize tasks, what type of people or personalities do I find hard to work with, what I think my greatest and weakest traits are, why I think I deserve a spot more than the other candidates, and they asked about any healthcare experience or volunteer experience
Super informative, im in the military and i already know im not going to be doing this for a very long time and looking into what i can do afterwards this is definately good option and i really appreciate all the info you provided
Thank you so much for this! I appreciate that you took the time to make a video about your program and radiology TECH. This is SO helpful to know before going into a radiology tech program.
Love this video so much!!! You’re one of the only youtubers I know of going into Radiology so I love watching your videos. My program seems super similar to yours with the orientation and clinical process! Loved the BE comment 😂 That’s crazy you ran the c-arm on your second day, I was terrified of it for the longest time!
It's crazy how there aren't really any other youtubers that are going into RT! When my supervising tech started moving the c-arm, the surgeon said "Um what are you doing? She's doing this" & looked me dead in the eyes & pointed at me 😂💩 BUT it went really well & was such a cool experience - still SUPER intimidating though!
Raya Juliana That’s awesome! ☺️ however, I’m studying to be a radiologic technologist, not a Radiologist - nevertheless, still very cool! I will definitely check out her content
OH MY GOSH! It is so fricken cool the reasoning of why you chose to be an x-ray tech and how your parents met! That is so so awesome! I am not even going into that field and I found this video so interesting! You are just so organized and so smart! Oh my gosh girl. Loved this video
Awh Steph, I truly appreciate it so much that you watched even though you're not even going into the field! You're seriously the truest friend! 💕 I definitely try to pretend I'm organized, but don't let it fool you 😂
Thank you so much this was so helpful all you wanna see if people wanting to be nurses and those are the only videos available. I hope everything works out for you!
Currently in my first semester for rad tech. I'm reeeeeeally glad I was in the military before doing this. A lot of my classmates get really stressed out about things and I'm like, "... Really?" Then again, few things stress you out after having to hand someone's arm back to them or perform first aid on a collapsed lung by using some tape and a plastic card. XD
Super helpful!!! I plan to move to florida and start my radiology clases there and don’t know what to expect so this was amazingly helpful!!! Thanks ❤️❤️❤️
Hello, I just came across your video. I’ve wanted to do sonography however it’s super expensive and I wanted a less debt road. My counselor actually recommended for me to go into Radiology and then further my studies into sonography if I still want to. Thanks to your video, I was able to direct where I wanted to go.
it’s cool to hear other people talk about their programs and how they’re so different!! in my program there was a interview process. and we don’t have pm or weekend rotations.
I wish my program did an interview process! It was honestly surprising to me how many people applied to my program not knowing what they were getting themselves into! I reallllly enjoy the pm shifts because there's definitely more of a variation of exams than during the day!
Hi Kristine, Thank you for your insightful video on MRI technology. It was incredibly helpful! I am applying to an MRI school next week and would greatly appreciate a few minutes of your time for a short interview as part of my application process. Best regards, khalil
Nice to see a video on this! I’m currently about finish off my second semester in the same program, everything you’ve stated is on point. Good luck with everything! 😁
I went to Wisconsin for my school as well, but it didn’t last long it was not my cup of tea so I went for nursing instead. Awesome video as always 👍👍🚨💕😍
This was so useful thank you! I’m going to be a senior in high school and am looking to do this for a living but could not find any specific insight into the program so this was very useful! My school offers a lot of the prerequisites as dual credit so once I graduate I will have all of my prerequisites completed.
Currently I'm Early Childhood Education student but I was looking into nursing for a back up career just in case and both x-ray and the regular nursing program at my college are to much for me for being someone who has a learning disability had a very hard time with the ECE program I'm now looking into Nursing Assistant. At the same time I'm so into becoming a teacher.
Like everyone else , SO GLAD I FOUND THIS VIDEO! Very first vid I find about Rad tech. So excited to start the program in October !!! Please keep doing more videos on Rad tech and how it goes !
Julia Kristine Thanks so much! I really plan on doing a RUclips channel also to talk about my program because there’s SO many types and many different courses, and there is barely Rad tech videos out to inform people so thank you ! ☺️ Also, best luck to you in everything 💀
In my program, anything under a 80% was an F. Every program is different, but they all have the goal of getting your ready for your Boards. I just passed my test with a 90.
@@drummerkid1500 Are you talking about the Boards or school? When I was talking my Boards, I honestly thought I was failing the entire time, but I got a higher score on my Boards than I did on my mocks. So yes they were hard, but I did really well.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this video! and I am glad someone finally made a video like this! Love the barium enema comment at the end of that segment :,) I have done too many this past year it's sick.. LMAO good luck this semester!
My prerequisites for rad tech are algebra, English 1 or 2, anatomy and physiology 1, psychology or sociology, medical terminology and medical assisting. Just a bit different!
Just got accepted to Rad school in Cali 😍 I'm hoping to go for MRI after. The school I'm at is the only school in the state (that I've seen) that allows you to get MRI with your BS so I'm hoping to get my Bachlelors 😄🙏 thank you for ur videos. Helps alot!
@@JuliaKristine I love your tips and videos I'm prepping now and getting some compression sleeves and all the study stuff 😂 love following your journey, thanks for sharing you experiences 🙏
Argosy student here until they closed 😤 then got lucky and Northwestern Health sciences University luckily took us in! I’m in 2nd week of clinical training and definitely can relate with the nerves it’s now only us haha
I got very lucky with getting into the program. At the time I applied they only allowed 15 people to be accepted, 14 were already accepted. Luckily I was the 15th choice
damn I love math but I'm really interested in this and right now I'm in my senior year. I'm going to apply to wake tech for 2 years and maybe transfer to a university but maybe.
Thanks so much for this video! So in-depth. Loved it ❤️ Your seriously like a super woman being in school and doing RUclips at the same time. U Rock🥰 I personally procrastinate too much lol.
Honestly I really wanna be in the medical field and I am so bad at math and can’t remember things n hate studying did you have to take chemistry in school ? N any advice ?

Is that 24 month including college to get the associates or just the mri parts it’s self?
Any study tips? 😁
Was that for associate degree or the certification ig ?
Thankyou for this ! 🫶🏾 I start my pre -reqs this fall !

Hey! just a question since i've been hearing about it. Do you usually experience burnout from working?
Is radiology tech school hard?
I love your videos! I’m currently a second year student. I find that there’s not many videos on RUclips about x-ray..there’s a ton of nursing ones it’s about time someone makes some about x-ray! 😊
thank you, Tatiana! yesss there are SO many nursing videos! I really wish there were more people in any of the imaging modalities who made videos! ☺️
Thats true we need more videos like this! My channel is about MRI
maybe just maybe nursing has more time on their hands than we do in DI.
You will likely need to have an ACT score and high school diploma to apply to most colleges, but you will have to research that for your specific school. There are radiologic technology programs offered at four-year universities for a bachelor's degree, or a two-year degree at community college's (which is what I am pursuing) for an associates in applied science degree.
Yes, I took the ACT in high school

That's a really amazing option!
Do you still recommend the field?😇
focus on MRI more
My prerequisites were Anatomy and physiology + lab, chemistry + lab, physics + lab, algebra, English 101, medical terminology, communications and 100 hours of shadowing a radiologist technologist
The college that I go doesn’t says that I have to take chemistry and physics.
English 101 is low shouldnt it be up to english 170?

Currently I'm Early Childhood Education student but I was looking into nursing for a back up career just in case and both x-ray and the regular nursing program at my college are to much for me for being someone who has a learning disability had a very hard time with the ECE program I'm now looking into Nursing Assistant. At the same time I'm so into becoming a teacher.
That's awesome that you found a path for you! You'll be a great teacher!
Yess! This video helps so much! I hope this starts a wave of other X-ray tech videos on RUclips.
Ahhh I hope so too! That would be so cool!
Whoot whoot!! Shout out to Wisconsin peeps
yessss
Sonny with a chance
Like everyone else , SO GLAD I FOUND THIS VIDEO! Very first vid I find about Rad tech.
So excited to start the program in October !!! Please keep doing more videos on Rad tech and how it goes !
This video is older so there are tons up on my channel!
Congratulations on starting your program & best of luck! 💛
Julia Kristine
Thanks so much!
I really plan on doing a RUclips channel also to talk about my program because there’s SO many types and many different courses, and there is barely Rad tech videos out to inform people so thank you ! ☺️
Also, best luck to you in everything 💀
Casandra Barrios You definitely should! ☺️
Hey cassandra, how has your journey to becoming a rad tech been??
I really love your videos . Im currently a Rad tech student and I am highly subscribed to your channel.
In my program, anything under a 80% was an F. Every program is different, but they all have the goal of getting your ready for your Boards. I just passed my test with a 90.
Mary Skelton were they hard?
@@drummerkid1500 Are you talking about the Boards or school? When I was talking my Boards, I honestly thought I was failing the entire time, but I got a higher score on my Boards than I did on my mocks. So yes they were hard, but I did really well.
Thank you so much for this video I was so scared to do it but now that I seen your video I feel like I could do it 😩💙
Did you only use rad tech book camp for study for the board ? Or did you use other things .
Did you study the questions in the learning lessons too ?
omg thank you I was so nervous about clinical
You just gained a new subscriber! Your videos are awesome!!! Love them!!!
Thank you!!
Thank you so much for making this helpful video!! I feel so much better now. Now I’m excited 🖤
Wishing you luck! 💕
This was so helpful. Thank you, Julia!!
I'm so glad!!!

My sister is interested in radiology! I’m gonna send this to her!❤️
awww yay! That is so exciting! I'm always here if she has any questions! ☺️
@@JuliaKristine My brother is wanting to start this fall semester taking x-ray classes.
this video helped me so much thank you!!
Thank you for doing this video! I am a 2nd year student!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I’m an endoscopy tech. There’s literally not one video of anyone who’s a endo tech. I feel so alone in this field lol
I'm persueing radiology and even tho it's different for every university, i guess this will be helpful :)
LOVE LOVE LOVE this video! and I am glad someone finally made a video like this! Love the barium enema comment at the end of that segment :,) I have done too many this past year it's sick.. LMAO good luck this semester!
YAY I'm so happy that you liked it! HAHA girl, you are a PRO now!
Savannah Abraytis why are BEs sick?
My prerequisites for rad tech are algebra, English 1 or 2, anatomy and physiology 1, psychology or sociology, medical terminology and medical assisting. Just a bit different!
thank you for commenting this!
This isn’t the case for all programs. Medical assisting is generally not needed.
Just got accepted to Rad school in Cali 😍 I'm hoping to go for MRI after. The school I'm at is the only school in the state (that I've seen) that allows you to get MRI with your BS so I'm hoping to get my Bachlelors 😄🙏 thank you for ur videos. Helps alot!
that is such a cool opportunity! congratulations & best of luck! :)
@@JuliaKristine I love your tips and videos I'm prepping now and getting some compression sleeves and all the study stuff 😂 love following your journey, thanks for sharing you experiences 🙏
This was super helpful, thanks so much for sharing!!
so glad it was helpful!
I love your room!
I LOVE this thank you so much I am applying for the radiology program and this is very helpful ❤️

Julia Kristine thank you so much ,love you’re videossss🤩❤️
Argosy student here until they closed 😤 then got lucky and Northwestern Health sciences University luckily took us in! I’m in 2nd week of clinical training and definitely can relate with the nerves it’s now only us haha
I toured Argosy way back when for sonography!
Congrats on getting accepted!!
This was so informative! Thanks for sharing xo
I'm so glad you benefited from it!!
Thanks Julia I really like your video.
Thank you. So much ima sighn up
I need you to drop a hair care video/ bleach process please. It’s beautiful! 😫😍
I got very lucky with getting into the program. At the time I applied they only allowed 15 people to be accepted, 14 were already accepted. Luckily I was the 15th choice
Congratulations!!
Thanks good luck with the rest of your schooling!
Just graduated from radiology technology 🎓🎓♥️♥️
congratulations!
Where and what school
Congrats
Thanks a lot, I’m really interested in the field and going into college to get my degree in this field.
Great video! I am doing pre reqs and considering nursing or x ray tech 🖤
Great video! I’m starting my first semester on Wednesday. Too bad I rented the positioning book, I guess I have to buy it now lol.
Hey just came across this video and it has been very helpful ❤️
Thank you ! Great information.
damn I love math but I'm really interested in this and right now I'm in my senior year. I'm going to apply to wake tech for 2 years and maybe transfer to a university but maybe.
Thanks so much for this video! So in-depth. Loved it ❤️ Your seriously like a super woman being in school and doing RUclips at the same time. U Rock🥰 I personally procrastinate too much lol.
Sooo glad you liked it! AHH thank you! That means so much to me, but I definitely do my fair share of procrastinating too!
I am going to a community college to and the only prerequisites are A&P 1 and A&P 2 (lecture and lab) to apply.
I just got accepted into the radiography program at my school. I’m lucky my school accepts 40 students a year.
That’s such an accomplishment! Congratulations!
And I’m here in highschool getting math shoved into my face...smh
I’m currently in my second week of classes for my program! 2 years to go
I hope you are doing well at your school Julia
Thanks for doing this video. Answered most of my questions. Good luck with your future classes.
Honestly I really wanna be in the medical field and I am so bad at math and can’t remember things n hate studying did you have to take chemistry in school ? N any advice ?
thank you so much for the information
