I honestly feel community college is way undervalued in society. Their degree programs often provide smaller classes, at a cheaper price, with practical content that you can readily use upon graduation.
"Community College is only for people who need to improve their grades. A degree from a community College won't get you anywhere." I was told this in high school. I firmly believe that the educational system is failing society. I tell anyone that asks for advice that College is not the only option.
@@nikolnolastname4473 community college can definitely be used for that as they really dont turn anyone down. But a degree from there can get you started in your field and get you into another college.
@@nikolnolastname4473 depending where you go not all is bad just got to be smart with your choices also experience gets you more money, but you shouldn’t just go for the money because you won’t last long at the job
@@teleshiatomlinson9358 not sure who the question was for but I don’t mind answering and I can tell you that I just googled each program and it’s requirements/tests for your location. Most community colleges offer many of these programs. I’d start with those in your area and if that doesn’t work then you may want to consider a commute or relocation.
@@hellothere1810 do whatever makes you happy. not hating on her at all but she must have mad some wrong choices with her money to still be 68k in debt at 60
I got an associates in Registered Nursing (ADN). School was around $5,000 at a community college. Financial aid helped big time. I only had to cover my travel costs to attend class and clinicals. I'm making close to $95,000 gross straight out of school. My workplace will help cover my Bachelors degree as well. Not an easy job, especially right now with the pandemic, but its good money. I am in a higher cost of living state though. I like to be transparent, hope this info helps someone.
Hi Calabaza, thank you for your informations. I am interested in getting an ADN. I am no longer young, I don’t want to spend 4 years in school. Do you mind telling me how can I get there, please ? Thank you in advance
@@nabouny21 Generally, you have to complete the following courses: Anatomy, Physiology, Microbiology, College level math, College level english. Those are usually the main classes. Some Nursing programs can sometimes also ask for Chemistry, Communications, etc, All these courses can be taken at a Community College and transferred into whatever nursing program you get accepted to. Before you can apply though, you have to first take an exam called the TEAS, or HESI, it depends on your state. As for timeframe. If you are able to attend full time, you should be able to knock out all the pre-requirements within 1-2 years. Then you take your test (TEAS/HESI). Then you apply to nursing programs. The programs themselves can range from 1.5-3 years. You can decided between an accelerated program (these are fast paced,) an associates (usually at a community college) which are 2 years, or at a University (3 years). All in all it takes around 4-5 years to become a nurse. Life likes to throw curve balls at me. It took me 7 years to make it to where I am today.. :) I have friends that completed within 4 years though. Hope this helps!
@@jeannettenanteguza5098 Yes! RNs are officers in the military. There are also nurses who are contractors meaning, they work on the base for the military but are not in the military.
I am an Interventional Radiologic technologist which is an associates degree in Radiology. I make over 100k a year plus call time!! I love my career plus no student loans!!!
@@poodlemynoodle2622 um the Radiology program was not very hard it’s just very time consuming and you can easily fall behind if your not on top of it. Then I got trained in IR once I got a job.
@ Poodle my Noodle: In all honesty, none of the Radiological professions are “easy”. The programs are accelerated and like she said if you don’t study DAILY you will fall behind and fail.
As someone trying to return to college in my mid-late 20s, I recommend that anyone who is not completely sure on their career to get a trade through a vocational/technical college first. It will provide a reliable income that will help you in affording future schooling, and it means you have more meaningful work than working some dead end retail/fast food job until you finish other studies you have in mind. I wish I considered this route further before going two years into a major that I was not 100% sure was what I wanted a degree in.
Well said, I’m 24 working at Walmart rn and I hate it... wasted my time at college and didn’t take it seriously while I was there. Now I’m looking into trade schools for other options.
@@MichaellaAnne Technical colleges are schools that mostly cater to providing Associates(2 year) degree programs for jobs that do not require a Bachelor's or higher, or provide certification courses to further your existing job qualifications. You often can take pre-req classes for cheaper there and then transfer into a 4 year college if you want. Vocational schools pretty much skip ALL pre req stuff like English or humanities and all of your courses are focused on the actual work you will do with your certification. Sometimes you can finish a vocational program in 6-12 months for the same certification that technical colleges make you study 2 years for.
@@stargazer9 good luck with the CNA work. That was the first certification I gained after dropping out of my first college. It is rewarding work if you care about serving and helping others, but it can be physically demanding at times. And hopefully you are in a state that actually pays CNAs because most southern states(outside of large cities) really take advantage of the lack of change in minimum wage the past decade or two.
Hi! hope this is not too invasive but how did you become a sonographer? I am currently in my 3rd year of a bachelor of science and I want to become a sonographer? do you have any tips on what to do and how to become one?
Tell me about it. First off I’m so tired of ppl thinking Sonographers main job description is “looking at babies” Ugh! I find it to be so disrespectful and ignorant. They belittle what we do by thinking the main reason for Obstetrical Ultrasound is to rule out any form of abnormalities. Medically speaking no one cares of the gender of a fetus. Not me nor the radiologist. Gender reveal are done at doctors offices complimentary or an entertainment facility. Pregnant ultrasounds are the LEAST of what we do. It’s predominantly an exam for soft tissue organs as in Liver, testicles, breast, thyroid Kidneys etc... and veins and arteries. You have to know and recognize diseases in all those exams. So our job is definitely NOT a “no brainer” job. It’s a lot of responsibility. If you have cancer and I scan you and I don’t find it then you’re going home with it undiagnosed. Sonographers are the ones who diagnose anything wrong. The Radiologist co-signs on it. Sonographers are Radiologist’s eyeballs. So we have a lot on our backs. It’s a great field if you’re someone who is good with details, hand and eye coordination. I just wish ppl would respect what we do and not think we’re just “baby picture takers” like a Sears photographer.
@ Nasra: Find out if your university offers “Diagnostic Medical Sonography” program. That’s the proper title of Sonographers. Since you’re a science major you might already have a lot of the pre-requisite classes. If not find and ACCREDITED school that offers it. Accreditation is IMPORTANT ! Or else you’ll get ripped off and will never work or be able to sit for your boards. You can either pick General Sonography, Echocardiography, or Vascular Sonography program. Hope this helped.
All those thinking to go into nursing for the money, don’t. Do it cause it’s a passion you have. To provide direct care for others when they are sick. To hold the persons hand as they take in their last breath....I can’t say how many nurses I see who wanted to work as a nurse because of the job security and pay. So many of them lack compassion and understanding. Glorified pill pushers is what they are known as. It’s a high stressful job that’s emotionally and physically draining at times. The pay can be good depending on what state you are in and where you work. Most long term facilities pay more, but the nurse to patient ration is high. Definitely research into it more first before choosing!
I agree. My mother is in the medical field as a clinical nurse specialist we both reside in south Florida; She loves her job and spends hours on end caring for patients. She often comes home with gifts from her recovering clients. Just like in every profession there's good and bad apples.....but in my opinion mainly down here in south Florida it's a bunch more of bad apples. Some nurses often neglect the ill and weak in a hospital where a patient expects care and compassion. One day my mother came home crying of disappointment. She walked into a patient's room and overheard one of the nurses telling the patients to wait 30 minutes (she was going to clock out in 30 mins) to release herself of waste and the second shift was going to handle it. After the nurse told the patient that luckily the patient was some what understanding and waited. Meanwhile, the nurse walked out and walked back to her station and was using her phone while chit chatting with others. That is sickening. I wish you all the best of luck and care for others.
I guess they started making associates programs to lure more people into the field without having to go to such strenous years of training because there is such a lack of nurses nowadays. Image what will happen if people started to find more and more interest in other careers and this nursing field dies....lol.
But there are other areas of nursing besides patient care...if one lacks the compassion and empathy needed to be in patient care, they can move to logistics, informatics, research, pharmaceutical, and other areas...
@@kim___P4P There is a difference though if you know that bedside isn’t for you, then look into something that requires less interaction. I agree with you 100% about other routes. My point was simply the ones that choose to just do bedside without care and compassion is all. I see it all too often and I think it’s best for those looking into a nursing career to look into it a little more first :)
As a 28 year old guy without a degree looking to make a big change, I appreciate you doing all this research and providing it to us in a bite size 11 minute video. Thank you, you got my sub!
Do it! I’m 26, and just did my first semester! You won’t regret it. It is hard though. I came straight out of high school(didn’t graduate), had a baby, got married, had two more kids and finally decided I wanted a career.
I attended a community college to obtain a science degree while working a full-time job with a young family. I have no student debt. I chose it over the University and I’m so glad I did. I earned over $113K last year. I’d like to go for another community college degree this Fall.
Every school counselor should take notes from you- the ample info you provide for the many occupations/fields. I wish I found your page sooner ESPECIALLY when I was really struggling (kinda still am) on finding which career suits best for me. Glad to find your page now! ***subscribed***
Seriously, when I was in high school my counselor wasn't really helpful. She just pushed for college applications just so the school could announce during graduation that all their students applied for college
Yesssss Karen I’m right there with u. Bc for the kids that don’t really know what they want to do in school. Should definitely know what a community college has to offer them. And I hate how some ppl look down on community colleges, like wtf it’s still a school an you still can get ur fucking degree.
I got a 2 year degree from a community college in Computer Networking and make 78K a year in Ohio . My 2400 square foot home with a big wrap around porch in a nice little town cost me $110,000. The coastal cities are just not worth the price to survive.
@ Lewis: Tell em’!!!! Good for you!! You are so right! I keep telling these youngsters of today that it’s NOT all about going to a “fancy schmancy “ university so you or your parents can brag about. You HAVE to look into certain professions to see actually what will be your end result after it’s all said and done. For example, a B.S. degree in Psychology. What can you really do with that straight out of college and what kind of salary?? But I can bet you the school loan is sky high, smh.
I wish I saw this 12 years ago. I'm going back to school to become a sonographer after spending 10 years in corporate America doing a job that sucks out my soul. I always wanted to work in healthcare, but didn't want to spend 10 years or go into immense debt to do it. But, better late than never!
Same here! I got my associates in medical management and working towards my BA for Public Administration, honestly, I can't seem to find a decent job in corporate America, even with my work experience.
It depends on what you get a degree in. If you go for anything with the word “studies” (ie. East Asian studies, women and gender studies), humanities (ie. history, psychology, sociology) or hard science (ie. Chemistry, biology, physics) you won’t be able to get a high paying job with just a bachelors. Unless of course you go to an Ivy League where your major doesn’t matter and you can get any job you want.
associates degree will get you as far as a entry level position at a job meanwhile higher level education can get you to that senior position. But also depends what you study and get the degree in
@@omgfreddy698 it depends on what field you’re in. You won’t be able to get an entry-level accounting job with just an associates (the field I’m currently in). Bookkeeping is below accounting.
@@jamesglimco4371its what i said lol it will take u as far as entry level while bachelor/master will get you mid to senior level in jobs… but it does depend on your choice of studies

A certified respiratory therapist is only the beginning. There’s another test to take and pass to become a registered respiratory therapist; RRTs are preferred since it is the highest credential and there’s more pay. Even after you get your registry there are other credentials that you can add to that provided you pass additional credentialing exams: critical care specialty, pulmonary function technology, neonatal specialist etc. all of these credentials means more specialized and more money.
@@didib9522 Unfortunately the bachelors in RT only holds value if you plan to teach or manage. For bedside care it doesn't seem to provide any benefit. The RT's I've met with bachelors degrees ultimately regretted spending the time and money.
I’m a licensed massage therapist.. specializing in sports. I’ve been a therapist for 10 years!! And I absolutely love what I do. As an entrepreneur it is a very rewarding career.

I don’t know why he made this video because most of these majors you have to go back to school to become certified/register. You have to go to a higher level school to get the knowledge for the certification test.
Im taking the prereq for Dental hygiene right now, usually it’s the basic science (like chem, Bio, and anatomy and physiology) psychology, math (I took stat), communication and some other thing that I forgot
I’m a Respiratory Therapist. With COVID, there’s a shortage. Contract respiratory jobs are paying $100/hr to $180/hr. But overall, 30s/hr… which is not bad at all for a 2 year degree. I started out as a student Respiratory Therapist 13 years ago making $18.5/hr. Now, I’m currently studying Salesforce… trying to get a foot into the IT field.
@@danyelo9032 no more quality care .. it’s all about charting and charging .. real patient care is not there anymore to be honest .. and I hate to be part of it ..plus it’s a very risky job .. even if the patient can’t poop, it becomes a respiratory issue eventually.. to cut down cost, a lot of places get rid of Respiratory Director or manager and then starts problems little by little .. putting a nursing charge for respiratory is very common but the thinking of each profession is completely different and therefore so many conflicts can occur
I just graduated Dental hygiene school this past April at 21 years old and a male in his field and man there is so much opportunity in in dental hygiene. Very flexible schedule and get well payed. I did duel enrollment at 17 finished 4 years later and I have no regrets!!! Absolutely none!
I went to a community college, struggled with core classes so I just took welding classes and didn’t get a degree.

Another great Associates Degree career, Certified Surgical Technologist (CST)! I've been in the field for 9 years and I love it! Make sure your school is CAAHEP so you can be certified by the NBSTSA (NATIONAL BOARD OF SURGICAL TECHNOLOGY AND SURGICAL ASSISTING). After a few years of experience, most hospitals will assist with tuition to get your CSFA (Certified Surgical First Assistant) credential. It's only an extra year of school online and you're making 6 figures at that point. This is a second career for me, I was a cosmetologist for 20 years straight out of high school. But the crash of 2008 landed me back in school. Best decision I ever made! Good luck out there! 🥰
@@kaylb7024 It depends on your desired work setting and the minimum requirements. Most colleges and high schools require a Master’s Degree in Counseling (through the School of Education). Make sure you take courses related to career assessments (personality, values and interests). If possible, do an internship in your desired work setting as part of your degree. It helps to build your network and professional competencies. Once you are employed, put a lot of work into your own professional development. Attend conferences and also learn about new assessments and best practices in Career Counseling. Good luck along your journey.
Good list. Nursing isnt on the list but I would say ADN RN should. I started out around $47k/year as a new grad RN with little loan from the community college. Then proceeded to obtain my BSN now making over $100k/year. Nursing is a great career if you have the compassion to help others. Otherwise for the hard work we do no amount of money would be enough.
@@giftapfel some community Colleges will have a limit on how many students can get into the program, for example ( radiology technician) is a popular program here at my county so there's a limit how many people can join and so they choose random names so this means it's not sure if u will be chosen or not
@@giftapfel community college are much more competitive than universities because of its cheap tuition cost sometimes fafsa would even cover the whole cost! Trying to apply for sono rightnow and its nearly impossible unless you have perfect A as pre req because they score base on your letter grade aswell as the hesi exam or other test.
This was a great and eye-opening video Hasham (or Hashan, I'm just going off of memory). If I had known about these occupations (with air traffic controller being the exception due to high stress) I probably would be working by now. One thing that I realized is how many people (me included) have been taught by our parents, or society, to get at least a bachelor's degree and we will be better off. But many people forget about the existence of student loans. During my time in an undergrad speech-language pathology program (which requires a Master's before you can even get employed), I can't tell you how many students I've ran into that go to college and work even though our advisors and faculty members strongly suggest not to do this. As a result, their biggest complaint tends to be how much studying time is lost and stuff relating to finances. Also, people tend to focus on how many figures they make a year, but as you mentioned in one of your videos, you can take advantage of compound interest and earn plenty towards retirement as you can work in your 60s (which an AA will allow someone to do). Keep up with the great videos!!!
My husband is an aviation technician. There are always jobs, although you may have to move. Tons of overtime available. My husband hit six figures last year. Top out pay without overtime is over 50$ an hour.

After 5-8 years he should be making $50 an hour. We fly for free and have great health benefits. The schooling only took him 14 months.
Getting my associates but I have no idea what I wanna do work wise. Just dont wanna be in an office job or in school that long. Ughhhh. Cool video though and love the comment section!
Having a high salary may sound great but learning to make money on your own is better. There are only so many hours you can trade for dollars and you will always be reliant on an employer. Learn to be industrious and make money for yourself and you will earn what you are worth to the end user. Learn to make money that requires little or no action from you and enjoy steady passive income day, night, rain or shine.
You can make 200k as a registered nurse with an associates degree. To do this you would first get your degree, get some experience in the hospital setting (>1yr) then a;ply to a travel rn position. This position entails moving to different states about every 3 months (or less if you want) and working for different hospitals. Hospitals pay a lot more for these nurses because they are required to travel and have enough experience to not be trained. I’m making 4K a week doing this only working 36 hours a week.
@@asharbuckle5576 thats ridiculous, nurses rightnow are like one of the respected people in the healthcare, i wish technicians get as much respect as nurses though.

9:32 Pro tip: It's actually very rare for you to be exposed to radiation at a nuclear plant due to how many precautions there are. Coal power plant technicians actually receive more radiation since coal ash is slightly radioactive and gets everywhere. Flight attendants too, since they have much less atmosphere above them to protect them from space radiation. So have no fear! The only scary thing is sometimes having to go to work at midnight, which to be fair is a common deal-breaker as you said.

Well unless you are doing 4 days a week on a full time or traveling nurse all year you won't make that. And it IS stress. I work hard 12 hr shifts. Anything can be learned and gets easier. But I agree, if you find something lmk! I worked hard to get where i am and life is just disappointing sometimes how the majority get treated. We think 15 bucks an hour is good pay. That's what they tell us on the radio lies I know. Anyways go for something that takes an associate for around that amount you want.

My advice for anyone wanting to join the medical field, try to get a job at a hospital as a CNA or other positions before you fully commit. I was attending community college for my nursing degree and while working at a hospital, I learned that nursing just wasn’t for me!
This ^^^^ I'm so glad that I went through a CNA program first before transferring to a 4-year university to finish my university degree because during clinicals I realized how much I hate working in a hospital. I'm happy I made that realization BEFORE going into tons of debt.
I know I'm late but YES!! No matter which type of medical field you're going into., consider CNA as a first job. You get to tune up your communication and interpersonal skills with patients and coworkers and you get to see every bit of everything in healthcare. I really like my job as a CNA, but I learned nursing is not for me and applying to rad tech school now. BUT many of the better RNs I work with said that being a CNA helped them to become better in nursing school and be the awesome nurses they are now!

I used to be a radiology technician (x-ray tech) and quite a few people who are x-techs get on the job training and later get their license to do MRI of sonography. I personally did mammography for a bit.
@@danielminta4567 there is a large range in how you are paid. If you are working in a private doctor's office they may pay more more less than a hospital will. I was working making $22 a hour entry as a mamo tech. That was low but it was entry level. I know of some people who only made $15 a hour entry at a VA hospital as a x-ray tech. Also another large factor is actually finding a job. Some areas there are lots of jobs available because there isn't a community college near by graduating a bunch of students every year. If you are willing to move to area where there are jobs (if there isn't any where you are) then it might be worth it. It takes a bit to get paid the higher wages. I was offered to get paid $30 a hour before I left my last job to be with my kids.
I'm an xray tech right now and make 30 an hour but I want out. I've been doing this for 8 years now but I want to go into IT. Xray is all about location.

I also was in a program by a hospital where they trained you to be an LPN…….& then the hospital would help pay for you to become an RN…….i wanted to become an ultra sound technician, but found it easier to get in the radiation therapy program. I spent over a year in this program. We had some training at hospitals….i then changed my mind…..i went back to aviation technician. I work for a major airline now as an AMT…… i am not in avionics…..but the pay is the same…..i make over 6 figures…. Any of the jobs i chose would have been great…..i was on the right path!! I spent $511 for my program….& it was so much worth it!!
I’m an RN! My cost of school was very cheap! I got hired at one of the top hospitals out of school. Now a travel nurse with an ADN making 🤑🤑 go for it!!
i’m thinking of being a RN i’m going to community college next year do u think i should even bother it seems so hard and i’m a average student if i’m being honest☹️
@@fjfj8655 If you want it bad enough you should go for it. I was an average student too but I was tired of my situation so I focused, cut distractions and got it done. That was 4 years ago! Trust me it’s worth it. So many opportunities in Nursing!
I have a bachelor degree in dental hygiene so that I could do more, but I still feel restricted. I was thinking about getting a Bachelor degree or a Master Degree in health information management and I want to learn about the field, but I don’t want to go back into debt for a degree again.
I got an associate's in electronic tech back in 1971. I became an automation tech and got paid a few years at 6 figure salaries. Now retired, and getting the max Social Security payout plus a 250,000 dollar IRA.
I don't work in sonography or respiratory care, but he said "hospitals" and elderly facilities... If you're mentally strong, go ahead. Because, in a sonography program, they warn you about things like: you can't tell the patients if they have cancer, you can't tell them if their baby is dead, there might be occasions were you'll have to clean vomit, you'll probably have a night shift, etc (at least HACC does). With respiratory care, elderly facilities aren't the most positive places to be in. Patients in there are just waiting for their death and depending on the facility and staff, they're not that well taken care of or treated well (at least not how I would love someone to take care of me) (I was a contractor for a short time in a facility in Lancaster, PA, so I got to see the interior a bit). All of this was already happening prior to the pandemic too. I'm not sure that a hospital setting would be any better either.
Thank you so much for making this video, I am actually doing my Prerequisites towards Dental Hygiene, Now this lets me know I made the right decision on my career path. Can’t wait to see future videos. :)
2 weeks ago online i seen Respiratory Therapist, Sonography, & Dental Hygienist as one of the highest paying Allied Health Careers as i'm a person pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Allied Health.

My moms a nurse and has a ADN. Has been a nurse for 15 years and now worked her way up to DON and is making $155k yr in CA. Honestly so many great options with associates. I have a masters in accounting and make under what my mom does lol.
I have my Associate’s degree in nursing. Last year I made over $150,000. Nothing I could have done that would have allowed me to provide better for my family. Zero regrets.
@@ADMIN-lc4lx Depends on where you work and the setting you work in. I’m in Oregon which is kind of a sweet spot between cost of living and average wage. I’ve also been a nurse for 24 years. When you are starting out shift differentials can add up so working weekends and night shift helps. Gaining experience in different settings will also give you more opportunities.
I have a bachelor's in medical lab science and I they started me out at $20/hr. We are wayyyy overworked and underpaid and our jobs are pretty dang important to be able to treat patients. I regret my decision 😩
@@missdesireindependance5194 so are nurses and they're paid fairly. Should've just done that I guess. I got burned out and have taken a healthcare break
Nursing is overrated. Don’t fall for it. Nursing school is hard, the job itself sucks, you work 12 shifts, you work holidays, you have a lot of paperwork and high patient loads and oh yeah you risk your health everyday in an hospital. There is a shortage for a reason
Hopefully, the Human Infrastructure reconciliation bill will pass through congress- among many other benefits, it includes a provision for free 2 yr community college & trade school tuition
Just another push for me to stick with school so I can get my vascular ultrasound certification. I know I can double my current salary when I finally get a job in the field.
It really does depends, in my state ADNs dont earn alot of money, BSN with specialization are the only ones that does. BSN in here earn more than PA lol
I got my associates degree in business administration I got financial aid for 2 years and now I work as an executive assistant for a property management company commercial properties and I make 85,000 a year love it!!!

@@nabouny21 Don't let age hold you back. The average age for a student in my class was 30. The oldest being in her 50's.
@@nabouny21 Generally, you have to complete the following courses: Anatomy, Physiology, Microbiology, College level math, College level english. Those are usually the main classes. Some Nursing programs can sometimes also ask for Chemistry, Communications, etc, All these courses can be taken at a Community College and transferred into whatever nursing program you get accepted to. Before you can apply though, you have to first take an exam called the TEAS, or HESI, it depends on your state.
As for timeframe. If you are able to attend full time, you should be able to knock out all the pre-requirements within 1-2 years. Then you take your test (TEAS/HESI). Then you apply to nursing programs. The programs themselves can range from 1.5-3 years. You can decided between an accelerated program (these are fast paced,) an associates (usually at a community college) which are 2 years, or at a University (3 years). All in all it takes around 4-5 years to become a nurse.
Life likes to throw curve balls at me. It took me 7 years to make it to where I am today.. :) I have friends that completed within 4 years though. Hope this helps!

As someone trying to return to college in my mid-late 20s, I recommend that anyone who is not completely sure on their career to get a trade through a vocational/technical college first. It will provide a reliable income that will help you in affording future schooling, and it means you have more meaningful work than working some dead end retail/fast food job until you finish other studies you have in mind. I wish I considered this route further before going two years into a major that I was not 100% sure was what I wanted a degree in.
Well said, I’m 24 working at Walmart rn and I hate it... wasted my time at college and didn’t take it seriously while I was there. Now I’m looking into trade schools for other options.
Yes this is my plan. I’m in school for cna and plan on taking dental hygiene prerequisites in the fall 🙏🏾
Can you elaborate the vocational/technical college? What does that mean?
@@MichaellaAnne Technical colleges are schools that mostly cater to providing Associates(2 year) degree programs for jobs that do not require a Bachelor's or higher, or provide certification courses to further your existing job qualifications. You often can take pre-req classes for cheaper there and then transfer into a 4 year college if you want. Vocational schools pretty much skip ALL pre req stuff like English or humanities and all of your courses are focused on the actual work you will do with your certification. Sometimes you can finish a vocational program in 6-12 months for the same certification that technical colleges make you study 2 years for.
@@stargazer9 good luck with the CNA work. That was the first certification I gained after dropping out of my first college. It is rewarding work if you care about serving and helping others, but it can be physically demanding at times. And hopefully you are in a state that actually pays CNAs because most southern states(outside of large cities) really take advantage of the lack of change in minimum wage the past decade or two.

@@nasragele371
1. Search for programs near you
2. Take required pre-requisites
3. apply to program
4. Choose a modality(Cardiovascular, general ect)
Tell me about it. First off I’m so tired of ppl thinking Sonographers main job description is “looking at babies” Ugh! I find it to be so disrespectful and ignorant. They belittle what we do by thinking the main reason for Obstetrical Ultrasound is to rule out any form of abnormalities. Medically speaking no one cares of the gender of a fetus. Not me nor the radiologist. Gender reveal are done at doctors offices complimentary or an entertainment facility. Pregnant ultrasounds are the LEAST of what we do. It’s predominantly an exam for soft tissue organs as in Liver, testicles, breast, thyroid Kidneys etc... and veins and arteries. You have to know and recognize diseases in all those exams.
So our job is definitely NOT a “no brainer” job. It’s a lot of responsibility. If you have cancer and I scan you and I don’t find it then you’re going home with it undiagnosed. Sonographers are the ones who diagnose anything wrong. The Radiologist co-signs on it. Sonographers are Radiologist’s eyeballs. So we have a lot on our backs. It’s a great field if you’re someone who is good with details, hand and eye coordination. I just wish ppl would respect what we do and not think we’re just “baby picture takers” like a Sears photographer.
@ Nasra: Find out if your university offers “Diagnostic Medical Sonography” program. That’s the proper title of Sonographers. Since you’re a science major you might already have a lot of the pre-requisite classes. If not find and ACCREDITED school that offers it. Accreditation is IMPORTANT ! Or else you’ll get ripped off and will never work or be able to sit for your boards. You can either pick General Sonography, Echocardiography, or Vascular Sonography program.
Hope this helped.
Back and body hurts 😭😭😭
All those thinking to go into nursing for the money, don’t. Do it cause it’s a passion you have. To provide direct care for others when they are sick. To hold the persons hand as they take in their last breath....I can’t say how many nurses I see who wanted to work as a nurse because of the job security and pay. So many of them lack compassion and understanding. Glorified pill pushers is what they are known as. It’s a high stressful job that’s emotionally and physically draining at times. The pay can be good depending on what state you are in and where you work. Most long term facilities pay more, but the nurse to patient ration is high. Definitely research into it more first before choosing!
I agree. My mother is in the medical field as a clinical nurse specialist we both reside in south Florida; She loves her job and spends hours on end caring for patients. She often comes home with gifts from her recovering clients. Just like in every profession there's good and bad apples.....but in my opinion mainly down here in south Florida it's a bunch more of bad apples. Some nurses often neglect the ill and weak in a hospital where a patient expects care and compassion. One day my mother came home crying of disappointment. She walked into a patient's room and overheard one of the nurses telling the patients to wait 30 minutes (she was going to clock out in 30 mins) to release herself of waste and the second shift was going to handle it. After the nurse told the patient that luckily the patient was some what understanding and waited. Meanwhile, the nurse walked out and walked back to her station and was using her phone while chit chatting with others. That is sickening. I wish you all the best of luck and care for others.
I guess they started making associates programs to lure more people into the field without having to go to such strenous years of training because there is such a lack of nurses nowadays. Image what will happen if people started to find more and more interest in other careers and this nursing field dies....lol.
Couldn't agree with you more!
But there are other areas of nursing besides patient care...if one lacks the compassion and empathy needed to be in patient care, they can move to logistics, informatics, research, pharmaceutical, and other areas...
@@kim___P4P There is a difference though if you know that bedside isn’t for you, then look into something that requires less interaction. I agree with you 100% about other routes. My point was simply the ones that choose to just do bedside without care and compassion is all. I see it all too often and I think it’s best for those looking into a nursing career to look into it a little more first :)

It depends on what you get a degree in. If you go for anything with the word “studies” (ie. East Asian studies, women and gender studies), humanities (ie. history, psychology, sociology) or hard science (ie.

A certified respiratory therapist is only the beginning. There’s another test to take and pass to become a registered respiratory therapist; RRTs are preferred since it is the highest credential and there’s more pay.
Even after you get your registry there are other credentials that you can add to that provided you pass additional credentialing exams: critical care specialty, pulmonary function technology, neonatal specialist etc. all of these credentials means more specialized and more money.

Another great Associates Degree career, Certified Surgical Technologist (CST)! I've been in the field for 9 years and I love it! Make sure your school is CAAHEP so you can be certified by the NBSTSA (NATIONAL BOARD OF SURGICAL TECHNOLOGY AND SURGICAL ASSISTING). After a few years of experience, most hospitals will assist with tuition to get your CSFA (Certified Surgical First Assistant) credential. It's only an extra year of school online and you're making 6 figures at that point. This is a second career for me, I was a cosmetologist for 20 years straight out of high school.

Then proceeded to obtain my BSN now making over $100k/year. Nursing is a great career if you have the compassion to help others. Otherwise for the hard work we do no amount of money would be enough.
ADN needs to be on this list, I'm shocked it wasn't. Hahahaha best career option
ADN programs have a long wait time in a lot of areas.
Keep in mind that these fields are competitive af and you may need to keep up a good GPA to get into these programs
There are community colleges with certified programs though
@@giftapfel some community Colleges will have a limit on how many students can get into the program, for example ( radiology technician) is a popular program here at my county so there's a limit how many people can join and so they choose random names so this means it's not sure if u will be chosen or not
@@giftapfel community college are much more competitive than universities because of its cheap tuition cost sometimes fafsa would even cover the whole cost! Trying to apply for sono rightnow and its nearly impossible unless you have perfect A as pre req because they score base on your letter grade aswell as the hesi exam or other test.

This was a great and eye-opening video Hasham (or Hashan, I'm just going off of memory). If I had known about these occupations (with air traffic controller being the exception due to high stress) I probably would be working by now. One thing that I realized is how many people (me included) have been taught by our parents, or society, to get at least a bachelor's degree and we will be better off. But many people forget about the existence of student loans. During my time in an undergrad speech-language pathology program (which requires a Master's before you can even get employed), I can't tell you how many students I've ran into that go to college and work even though our advisors and faculty members strongly suggest not to do this. As a result, their biggest complaint tends to be how much studying time is lost and stuff relating to finances. Also, people tend to focus on how many figures they make a year, but as you mentioned in one of your videos, you can take advantage of compound interest and earn plenty towards retirement as you can work in your 60s (which an AA will allow someone to do). Keep up with the great videos!!!
My husband is an aviation technician. There are always jobs, although you may have to move. Tons of overtime available. My husband hit six figures last year. Top out pay without overtime is over 50$ an hour.
Oh wow! My husband has been looking into becoming a certified aviation mechanic, but when he looked at the pay (in Cali) it didn’t seem that high...
I agree! My husband is too! He now works at SpaceX, his dream job!
@@shorty8270 My husband actually started with a small company in Louisiana to get experience. He was only making $17 in the beginning. Then he joined United Airlines in San Francisco starting around $30 an hour. He moved to FL to a different large name company at the same pay. After one year, they bumped his pay by $5. After 5-8 years he should be making $50 an hour. We fly for free and have great health benefits. The schooling only took him 14 months.
@@FeliciaBerryVlogs miss please let me know if you can, may you ask your husband if the program was hard? Thank you.

Getting my associates but I have no idea what I wanna do work wise. Just dont wanna be in an office job or in school that long. Ughhhh. Cool video though and love the comment section!
This is how I feel
Having a high salary may sound great but learning to make money on your own is better. There are only so many hours you can trade for dollars and you will always be reliant on an employer. Learn to be industrious and make money for yourself and you will earn what you are worth to the end user. Learn to make money that requires little or no action from you and enjoy steady passive income day, night, rain or shine.
I wanna do this but I don't know where to start
@@dinawarsame8120 do you live in the United States?
@@Scott-by9ks Yeah I do
You can make 200k as a registered nurse with an associates degree. To do this you would first get your degree, get some experience in the hospital setting (>1yr) then a;ply to a travel rn position. This position entails moving to different states about every 3 months (or less if you want) and working for different hospitals. Hospitals pay a lot more for these nurses because they are required to travel and have enough experience to not be trained. I’m making 4K a week doing this only working 36 hours a week.
Thats awesome. Sound like a good job while your still single or have no children.
Most places these days do require a BS.N to become a nurse, but yeah in a few places you can pull it off with a associates
@@asharbuckle5576 thats ridiculous, nurses rightnow are like one of the respected people in the healthcare, i wish technicians get as much respect as nurses though.

9:32 Pro tip: It's actually very rare for you to be exposed to radiation at a nuclear plant due to how many precautions there are. Coal power plant technicians actually receive more radiation since coal ash is slightly radioactive and gets everywhere. Flight attendants too, since they have much less atmosphere above them to protect them from space radiation. So have no fear! The only scary thing is sometimes having to go to work at midnight, which to be fair is a common deal-breaker as you said.

I am the Respiratory Therapist! Nice video
My uncle did that and he said to do nursing instead because there's more opportunity is that true?
@@SA-be1bn yes there definitely is but there are a lot of respiratory jobs as well. Nursing you have to do much more for about the same pay but if you are into the field then yeah probably nursing. I like respiratory but have no interest in climbing a ladder so to speak
@@whyjustwhy2168 Ya not really interested in helping people but I don't think I have a choice. Always wanted to be an engineer but my dad told me I'm not smart enough because he was one his whole life a knew it wasn't for me. I just need a salary of 75- 80k USD to survive. Free of stress don't have to think too hard.
Well unless you are doing 4 days a week on a full time or traveling nurse all year you won't make that. And it IS stress. I work hard 12 hr shifts. Anything can be learned and gets easier. But I agree, if you find something lmk! I worked hard to get where i am and life is just disappointing sometimes how the majority get treated. We think 15 bucks an hour is good pay. That's what they tell us on the radio lies I know. Anyways go for something that takes an associate for around that amount you want. Everything you will like and don't like things about it and it will get old. Find the balance between salary and I don't hate this. If that makes sense, good luck

My advice for anyone wanting to join the medical field, try to get a job at a hospital as a CNA or other positions before you fully commit. I was attending community college for my nursing degree and while working at a hospital, I learned that nursing just wasn’t for me!
This ^^^^ I'm so glad that I went through a CNA program first before transferring to a 4-year university to finish my university degree because during clinicals I realized how much I hate working in a hospital. I'm happy I made that realization BEFORE going into tons of debt.
I know I'm late but YES!! No matter which type of medical field you're going into., consider CNA as a first job. You get to tune up your communication and interpersonal skills with patients and coworkers and you get to see every bit of everything in healthcare. I really like my job as a CNA, but I learned nursing is not for me and applying to rad tech school now. BUT many of the better RNs I work with said that being a CNA helped them to become better in nursing school and be the awesome nurses they are now!

I used to be a radiology technician (x-ray tech) and quite a few people who are x-techs get on the job training and later get their license to do MRI of sonography. I personally did mammography for a bit.
How's the pay? You know some people hype stuff up.
@@danielminta4567 there is a large range in how you are paid. If you are working in a private doctor's office they may pay more more less than a hospital will. I was working making $22 a hour entry as a mamo tech. That was low but it was entry level.
I know of some people who only made $15 a hour entry at a VA hospital as a x-ray tech.
Also another large factor is actually finding a job. Some areas there are lots of jobs available because there isn't a community college near by graduating a bunch of students every year.
If you are willing to move to area where there are jobs (if there isn't any where you are) then it might be worth it.
It takes a bit to get paid the higher wages.
I was offered to get paid $30 a hour before I left my last job to be with my kids.

I don't work in sonography or respiratory care, but he said "hospitals" and elderly facilities... If you're mentally strong, go ahead. Because, in a sonography program, they warn you about things like: you can't tell the patients if they have cancer, you can't tell them if their baby is dead, there might be occasions were you'll have to clean vomit, you'll probably have a night shift, etc (at least HACC does). With respiratory care, elderly facilities aren't the most positive places to be in. Patients in there are just waiting for their death and depending on the facility and staff, they're not that well taken care of or treated well (at least not how I would love someone to take care of me) (I was a contractor for a short time in a facility in Lancaster, PA, so I got to see the interior a bit). All of this was already happening prior to the pandemic too. I'm not sure that a hospital setting would be any better either.
