Working alone is a pro in my book 😅
Absolutely!
Factzzzzz on Facts!!!
That part😅
Definite pro
you feel me lol
I'm 15 in the 10th grade taking early college so I'm in a collage campus, I plan on taking Sonography as my career.
Good for you that's awesome. I'm almost done with my program now. It's very hard but so worth it.
How you do this?
You’re doing a lot better than most your age. Keep it up, future you will thank you.
What is hard about it? Did you graduate?@@rebeccalasky6109
Me too!
Thanks. I'm turning 30, engaged and decided to switch careers. Switching from a career as a vet tech. I did basic sonography on animals and now I would like to switch to humans.
Best of luck on your journey!
Omg same! Did you do the course?
I'm also 30 and was interested in the vet tech route but now I'm considering sonography instead due to its financial stability! Did you end up enrolling into a program?
I just graduated as a surgical tech and I'm thinking about going back to school to be a sonographer. If I learned nothing else from becoming a surgical tech, it's to do your research before just jumping into a healthcare field. So, that's what I'm doing now and this really gave me some insight into this field. So thank you! I still have some more researching to do, but I'm thinking about going for it!
Same here! I started as a scrub tech in June & even though it’s only been a short period of time, it just isn’t for me. Definitely gonna do my research before I decide my next career move though.
You’ll have it easy because you already to the class u need to join the program it’s same requirements
Hey what was your surgical tech experience like? I’m debating if I should study that. How stressful is it? I have anxiety problems and mild scoliosis so I’m thinking a lot lol
@@ASimpleBall I have severe anxiety with panic attacks and I had surgery on my back because of scoliosis so we are similar. My experience was.... nerve wracking. It takes a special type of person to be a surgical tech and the clinical rotation I we through taught me that I am not one of those people. 😅 This only really applies to three specialties for me, though ORTHO, NEURO (neuro isn't all that bad just super long and a LOT of instruments but surprisingly you don't use as many different ones as you do in Ortho), and general. My back hurts SO bad that some days I couldn't even stand up straight, my anxiety was through the roof despite my medication, some preceptors really don't want students, and doctors (not all) can be asses. It can be both stressful and exciting. It was even rewarding at times when I got to do things on my own and I had a preceptor that actually smiled and greeted me. But I also couldn't take it to heart because the job is already stressful enough for them, and on on top of all that, having a student. They didn't have a choice in the matter and they didn't get paid any extra money for babysitting a new ST. This just comes along with the job. I really wanted to be in L&D, oral/maxillofacial, or opthalmic but here where I live they are scrambling to hire for general and orthopedic the most and it's very hard for new hires to get into other specialties. In the end, it's not for me, but your experience could be totally different. So, if this is something you're truly interested in, then, by all means, become a ST.
You can still be injured in ultrasound though? I have scoliosis and it’s throwing me off from going in
I have been a sonographer for over 21 years (RDMS, RVT). Everything that you said is spot on!! One con that you didn’t mention--->dreaded Call.
Definitely! Working on call is the worst lol especially when you don’t live close to the facility
What is RDMS AND RVT
@@mariahpotter2848 Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer, RVT I believe is Radiology
Do you have to be on call
@@mariahpotter2848 vascular tech. More specialized
Thanks for the video. Not many Sonography videos out there. I’m a Cardiac sonographer ( been at it for 1.5 years) and started traveling ultrasound- currently at my first assignment 😊
Yes ma’am! Congrats!
Congratulations! I hope you have a great experience!
Is it “hard” on the body? I’m looking into changing careers
Have you enjoyed traveling so far?
I'm in early stages of my sono education, and being California was wondering, if you can point me to the Cardiac program? I'm at CBD college accelerated program now
Hey! Thank you for this video and the information. I am strongly considering becoming a Sonographer and this video I feel puts me on the right path. I will surely check out more videos. And one thing I didn’t know before watching your video is… the different variety of shifts I can choose from. That’s a great PRO!
That’s awesome! I pray for you figure it out! Since starting my first sonography job as a student I’ve been loving the different variety of shifts that you can choose from. There’s a huge shortage of sonographers in the medical field so you definitely won’t have any difficulty getting hired while in school or after! Thank you so much for watching!
@@cierrabreanna ouuu that’s good to know. Makes me feel pretty confident! Thank you 🙏🏽
I didn’t even know a travel sonogapher was a thing! I love travel, and I didn’t know these two could be combined. I’m pretty sure I want this for a career but I’m clueless as to how to start. Thank you for explaining your job!
Ofcourse! I didn’t know it was an option either until I started lol. It definitely a great option to take into consideration. Thank you so much for watching!!💛
@@cierrabreanna how did you start learning sonography? Like where did you go or what online classes did you take?
@@kaylaplaysthesims you take a 2 year program I think. I would suggest doing more of your own research on this because it’s a lot to know
Thank you so much for this video🥰 I start my classes in July and I’m extremely excited. I really appreciate this video, it made me that much more confident that I’m making the right career choice, much love to you❤️
Congratulations🥳 I’m so happy for you! You’re going to do great and thank you so much💕 I wish you good luck on your sonography journey!
@@cierrabreanna Thank you 😊 and I hope if anyone reading this is over the age of 35 and think they can’t do it or they’re too old, think again! Im 37 and I’m doing this ! And feeling great about it ❤️
@@desireeroybal8090 I’m in the same predicament 33 with 2 kids and 1 on the way so I’m trying figure it out I’m in chicago wya?
@@desireeroybal8090 I’m 37 and I decided to go with Sonography…I’m in my last semester and then will do 6 months externship…and I so agree with you no matter the age it’s a rewarding career…Good luck to you in your career 😊
Hello! I’m sorry I’m so late but could I ask you what degree you’re doing for this?
To answer the whole "something I didn't know": & I hope this dosn't sound stupid, but I know all jobs have good and bad days, but I didn't know what a bad day in this field looked like. I have been researching thise field for a bit and have been wondering about that and how common experiences like that were in this field. I find it realy helpful that you emphasized what could go wrong on the job and what a person needs to 100% be emotionally ready for in this line of work.
I have been considering going into this field, but I have found over the years that I am slow to heal from something like an unforseen passing. I am guessing this isn’t the field for me, but I really appreciate your highlighting of the pros & cons. I have seen a few other videos, and your's the first to really go over what a bad day is like. So I know this sounds like a bit of a bummer takeaway, but thank you so much for how thorough your video has been. It has been super helpful.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for all your sonography videos !! They are helpful, I start my sonography program in one month. And your videos are helping me to feel more prepared ❤️
Oh wow that’s amazing! Congrats on starting sonography, I wish you good luck!! Thank you for watching
Did u have to take any prerequisite? I want to to start hopefully I don’t have to
Starting school in a few month! I haven’t been able to figure out what I wanted to do until my most recent job. I job a job as a receptionist in a rehabilitation center! It really opened my eyes to what I could handle and not! I immediately knew I wanted to do sonography! Needed all the best wishes to get through school! I’m so excited for this future! Thank you for this video🤍
Ofcourse! Thank you so much for watching!!
Thank you so much for this video. I’m currently 16, a student in high school. I have no plan or interest in college, nor do I have a 100% idea of what I want to do.
My mom was telling me about being a ultrasound tech. I looked into it some more and I feel like it would be a perfect career for me to get into, especially since I only need that specific training for 1-2 years instead of going to college for a reason that I don’t even know what I want to do with.
I’m going to continue looking into this and find out as much as I can!
No problem. You have plenty of time to find your path. Continue researching and everything will work out fine!
i love how you keep the videos short and cute. Very informative.
I appreciate that!!
Thank you for your honesty, I want to work in ob/gyn, but I didn't think about the sad parts.
No problem! OB isn’t for everyone, but there’s always other specialties!
Your smile is beautiful and thank you for the great tips ❤
Thank you so much! I’m so glad I could help🤍🤍
I’m caught between choosing Dental hygienist and Sonographer. As a female, I’m more comfortable to treat only female patients. Confused which path I should take
I completely understand. I personally feel more comfortable scanning women too, but I’m planning on working in the hospital for at least 2 years for experience and the hopefully moving to work in a OB outpatient facility/pediatric outpatient facility where you’ll mostly be scanning mothers or children and babies. You will have to scan both men and women during clinicals, but you still have the option to work in a facility after school where you won’t have to do both.
I'm stuck between those 2 as well! Did you end up choosing one?
I'm on the same boat.
I thought the same thing , stuck btw the two but then I hate stinky breathe and I hate seeing nasty teeth so I went for sonography 🤣
@@tajhagrady4055 Yes exactly! How do you find sonography now? Good choice?
Oh man this makes me so excited for the future!! Thank you for making this video. I start dms school next month :)
I so happy that I could help! Thank you for watching and good luck with your studies!!
Loved your video!! Been looking into this field for quite sometime and I do want to start after I have my baby! Hopefully I am able to balance everything 😅
Thank you so much! Congratulations, God bless you and your baby❤️. There’s a lot of mothers in my class and they’re doing fantastic so you definitely got this!!
You can do it!!
oh my gosh thanks so much for this video !! it was so well organized and helped me a ton !!❤❤❤❤
Thank you for watching! I’m glad that I could help!❤️
Beautiful! Great job, you did a wonderful video!❤️
Thank you!❤️
Physics is holding me back.
Thank you so much; this was very informative. I will be attending an information session at my school this week. Hoping to start in the Fall 😌
Glad it was helpful!
I am a sonogrpaher. I agree with your points. It’s a great job overall.
Have you had any hand injuries?
I just changed my major😇😇
That’s awesome! Congrats and good luck on your ultrasound journey🥳
@@cierrabreanna thank you
Thank you. This was so helpful.
Great video! I’ve been wanting to do be an Ultrasound tec for years now. I’m still considering it. Side note: My daughter’s name is Kiarah Breaunna! Kinda looks a lot like your name! 😊❤
Thank you for this!! I’m looking to get into sonography and then branch into dosimetrist!
No problem! Dosimetrist sounds really cool! I haven’t much about it career, but from what I’ve heard it sound pretty interesting. Good luck on your sonography journey!
I'm thinking about sonography the only thing bothering me is the stress injuries and the physics. Physics was the only class i ever failed and i truly did try my best and got tutored by my teacher :( so i dont know
Are you in the program?
What do you mean by stress injuries?
Am just starting this month! Thanks for this!
Congrats to you! I wish you good luck, thank you for watching!
Is this a good job for introverts? I mean, where co workers and fellow staff members are concerned (not the patients). I just prefer to work alone.
yes it is
Thankyou! Will pursue sonography !
Yayyy! You’re welcome!
What a pretty, good-nature d person!
Can you tell me more about the risks of getting injured? Hearing that part scares me
I want to do sonography so bad but for some reason it seem so complicated 😩
You can do anything you put your mind to! I felt the same way when I first started. It’s intimidating to learn, but after your first rotation of clinicals, everything will start to click more.
Hey there @adrianna. I'm in my last semester of school I'll be finishing this year in December. TRUST AND BELIEVE ME it is not complicated at all. If I can do it ANYONE can. I don't regret anything at all. Go for it!! And everything she's saying right now is true. Good luck dear.
Same and for the same reasons I haven’t started !😩
I watched a couple of these videos from different UA-camr’s and I get spooked every time . I was supposed to go to an information session at this college about a month ago and I haven’t went . I rescheduled twice , I never been one to take risk and I doubt myself a lot and just let my negative self talk take over and talk me out of things .I currently work as an STNA and have been for about 11 years now I’m completely burnt out , it’s bad to the point I literally give away my shifts every chance I get . It’s time for a change and I know it but I’m just scared and really not clear on what my purpose is , I just happen to look up what I could go to school for & found sonography intriguing.
@@cierrabreannais the math hard?
As an ultrasound technician, are you guys always exposed to dim and dark places when working? Or it really depends on which division you are at? What percentage of the time you are exposed to dim lights? My eyes are pretty sensitive and I get dizzy from looking at my phone in the dark! This probably isn’t for me? What do u think…
I’m still an ultrasound student, but yes our rooms are mostly pretty dark, with maybe one lamp on. I have astigmatism so my eyes are super sensitive as well. I find that wearing my glasses helps! They transition into shades when they sense UV rays from the sun, which really helps my eyes transition from dark rooms to extreme sunlight. I used to get really bad headaches and dizzy from it, but doing that and also following the 20 20 20 rule helps me from suffering from them!
But most places have dark rooms. The 20 20 20 rule gives your eyes breaks from straining and starring at the computer. You’ll learn about it once you start school, but they also have videos online on how to follow it!
🙏🙏🙏
This was really helpful, thank you. I'm considering switching careers to sonography. I was wondering what percentage of the time you spend writing reports/ doing computer work (not including the sonography machine as computer work)? Thank you so much in advance
We write up reports after each exam. I typically takes 3-5 minutes. Sometimes less if it’s a quick and easy exam
Great video ‼️🫶🏽
Thank you!
But very great tips baby!!! 🫡🫡
This was soooo helpful. Thank you!! Where did you go to school?
This is new I like it ❤
Amazing video 😊
Thank you girly!
You’re really pretty 😍
I’d drop someone 😭😭😭
I know you would 😭🤦🏾♀️
I have always wondered if sonographers can work (3) 12 hour shifts? I'm a 51 year old HR manager. Thinking of a career change. Thanks
Yes! In a hospital, you can work all types of schedules. I currently work two 12 hour shifts a week as a student. Once I graduate I’ll be working more hours. If you work in out-patient you’ll most likely have a set schedule like a 9-5
@@cierrabreanna thanks.
i’m looking into this, and i wanted to ask when you first graduate and get your first job, do you have to go straight into a hospital?
I only need one more class then I can apply for the program. BUT I HAVE TO ASK. If you didn’t get accepted into the program what was your backup plan. Also, did you shadow a sonographer or have direct patient experience before applying. Did anything
Did anything help get into the program
I was all over the place before I actually chose ultrasound. I first was going to be a forensic accountant, or financial advisor. I wanted to work in healthcare, but didn’t have the patience to be a nurse lol. I thought about the military too, but I ended up landing on ultrasound. I didn’t shadow a sonographer, but I watched a lot of of videos on sonography to find out if it was the right fit for me and I did a tour of my school before applying. I would recommend taking a tour so that you can ask many questions about the program before applying there! Good luck!!
@@cierrabreanna I’m in the same situation I’ve been going for Computer Science but all the pre reqs and math classes seem really daunting to me. I’ve passed some of them already but it’s get very repetitive. My family is very toxic and its hard to get my work done all the time because of all the chaos. I think I might switch to something like this, I like that’s it’s not as math based and still has some challenges. I also like the fact you aren’t stuck behind a desk all day like most programmers. I’m gonna check it out because I rather at least have a job after college rather then going through all this bs just to not complete my degree and be stuck with my wild ass family. Did they make you take regular pre-requisites like English and Math , anthropology etc ? I think I was really drawn to computer science because all the money in the field and how you can get rich if you play the cards right but at the same time I might just have to make money a different way.
I completely understand and I pray that things will get better🫶🏾. I had to take prerequisites for ultrasound but it was classes like anatomy and physiology, speech, physics, algebra 1, English, writing etc. I agree on the money part. I’ve learned that money isn’t everything. Money can only bring you a certain level of happiness, but if you’re waking up everyday and hating what you’re doing, it’s not worth it. Thank you so much for watching, I pray find the right career choice for you!❤️
@@cierrabreanna Hey thanks for the quick reply Cierra 🙏🏽. Yeah I agree with you so I’m looking on my schools website and it says you have to get accepted in to a program after taking the pre-preqs. So I should finish all of them them first then apply to one to the programs it says the deadline was already nov 2022. Also what made you choose Sonography over Radiological Technology anything in particular? On my colleges website it says the radiological people make slightly more money not sure if that’s true. And what you said about the money thing is true in a way , I feel like if your smart with your money and your not miserable at your jobs it’s better than being in a cubicle working for the master boss. My friends “pops”that he recently found out about but never met. Runs a mortgage business and his website literally has a bunch of damn typos on it oh lawddd. At this point I think money making abilities can’t be all from somebody’s intelligence. I think some people are just really determined , and they curbed the laziness and discipline. Because if he can have typos on his website and very little followers on his socials and still be bringing in customers it can’t be that hard. A lot of the “intelligent” people in my highschool would overthink everything leading them to getting no where. Great channel I’ll def subscribe.
Ok so I’ve seen some videos where they’ve said that the doctor told them (the sonographer/ultrasound tech) to tell the patient the results (in cases like miscarriage or tumors) so are doctors not supposed to do that??
Hi can you explain like whay speciality to choose from based on personality ? also what tips do you have when patients are begging you to tell them
How much standing do you have to do? I have pots (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) which prevents me from standing for a really long time. But I really want to be a sonographer
At my job, I’m typically always standing because I prefer to, but we do have ergonomics chairs for techs who likes or needs to sit. There are techs that I’ve scanned with who sits during every exam. You will have to stand if you have to go up to a patients room to scan or in the ER while in a hospital!
Im planning on transitioning from being military police to sonography, do you know anybody that was prior military in sonography?
There are two girls in my sonography program that are former military. One from the army and one from the marines!
Im also doing the same ! I get out the army in July and planning to do sonography
Thank you for this video! Definitely thinking about this profession. Do want to let you know I hear you saying Ek-specially. There’s no k or x sound in that word. It’s just Especially 👌. Hope this helps.
Thanks so much for this video...I was in the Engineering field but I am thinking of switching to this new field of Sonography...I must say I am worried about this switch but can you advice if this is a good move or not for me? Also, I am in my late 30s, would this be a disadvantage for me?
There’s women in my program who are in their 30s, transitioning into sonography and their doing great with straight A’s! Sonography is usually a second career change for most people because it’s a field that most people don’t know about. It’s definitely something to look into if you feel like you have a passion for it! The medical field isn’t for everybody, but I would recommend shadowing a tech for a day to see if this something you can see yourself doing. Thank you so much for watching!
@@cierrabreannacourses it's difficult? Can we master it for a 40 year mother
2:39 😂 🥼🩺👩🏾⚕️
Ive seen other people talk about pre-reqs so does that mean you go to college then sonography school? Because online when I try doing research it comes off as if you can just go to a trade school type for it but actual people talk about taking classes prior. Can you elaborate on the specific steps you took? If you already posted a video addressing this ignore my comment.
Hi, it’s like any traditional college. Before you get into your major, you have to take a certain amount of prereqs that are required for that program like nursing school. It’s not like law school where you have to get a bachelors degree before being eligible for law school. Some technical schools may require you to have a degree before you join their program so it just depends on where you go. My college is a associates degree program so I will come out with a degree in diagnostic medical sonography.
^^I hope this helps!
Great video! I do have a question that is not related to the topic of this video. I’m a new ultrasound student 2 months in, at first I really liked but now that I’m studying physics I am like not sure anymore physics is pretty confusing for me anyway my question is do you really use physics in your everyday work as a sonographer?
Hi! Thank you! And yes, you use it unconsciously, but now all of it. It becomes a lot easier. Are you talking about gen ed physics or understanding ultrasound physics? I can be very discouraging in the beginning, but once you get pass it, everything will be better. Physics is usually the least favorite class for everyone, but you got this! I have a video on how to pass the spi if you like some tips!
@@cierrabreanna Hello, thank you for your response and it definitely helped. I was talking about ultrasound physics. Thank you for your reassurance I will keep trying at it and not give up. I will definitely look into your video on passing the spi again thank you so much!!!
@@cierrabreanna I’m a sonography student…it’s so nice to see another beautiful sister in the field 🥰what specialty are you going for…I bumped into your page just browsing and I like your content and definitely subscribed 😊
I have to take the Spi and I’ll be sure to check out your video
@@HoneySoooFly thank you so much!❤️ I really appreciate it and thank you for watching!!
So when you're doing the sonogram and there is something wrong that you can see, and I know you have to let the doctor tell them instead of you... but what do you say when you're doing the procedure and they ask? Are you supposed to lie or what exactly can you tell them even though you see something is wrong?
This is what I want to know
Waitttt a minute!!!!
The sonographers are not obliged to read the images ???
I mean, I thought that was the complex and difficult part for the students.😂 omggg
Yes, we write up reports on our findings, but the radiologist is who puts the final impression/report for the patient. Sonographer’s reports are just for the doctor to read.
What is the oldest student who has become a sonographer? ARE there unwritten age limits?
There are no age limits to changing to a new career field! I’ve seen students 50+ age change to sonography!
Totally unrelated question, how is managing your relationship and your schooling?
Hello. Thank you for the video. Really helpful. I have a one question. Can a person who is partially color blinded can apply for the sonographer. He has a red and green partially color blinded
I’m not sure. That would be a good question to ask a sonography school!
Thank you so much for watching!
🔥🔥🔥
2 years is still a long time, especially after prereqs and a difficult program. Another con is that you can't help patients without a machine. It's a very limiting profession, especially if you want to branch out to different areas in the hospital. I almost went into sonography because the money looked really good and it looked interesting. However, when I shadowed, I was bored out of my mind.
If you don’t mind me asking… What did you decided to do instead?
the 2 years will pass anyway
How did you shadow? I would love to do that
Which one is better cardio vascular or general sonography I need to choose one but not sure
I would say general sonography because you can do way more versus cardio where you would most likely only be scanning hearts and that’s it, but I’m not sure about cardio because that’s not my specialty, but everyone has their own preference!
The school I applied to is only offering a bachelors degree for sonography 😫
Hi! I’m sorry to hear that 🙁. Try to see if there are any associate programs in your area. It sucks that it’s so hard to find sonography programs in certain areas
How math intensive is this? I have a learning disability and only have a 4th grade math level I don't want to put a bunch of time into this field and then not be able to proform
It’s basic algebra and physics for your prerequisite classes. You’ll also need to take a board exam called the SPI that deals with math. I would recommend shadowing a sonography teacher and asking them about the math difficulty. It can be hard to explain virtually.
Hi, I have a question ? Is there any radiation that could affect our body. Please explain ?
Hi! No there’s no radiation involved in ultrasound. We use sound waves to create images.
I want to do this but feel discouraged being a man
There are men in this field. It’s just that they may have to have a chaperone depending on what type of exam they’re doing. Like pelvic exams.
Which are the most difficult patients male or female?
was helpful
I’m glad I could help!
i cant handle people dying in my face
6:00-7:03
Looking to go into this field, it is a female dominated field. Do you feel this is due to hospitals preferring a female perform the job or simply statistics? Just wondering it it is something that I can succeed in as a man
hey what are some of the shift hours available while working in a hospital?
Hey! There’s a wide variety of shifts you can do just like nursing. It all depends on the hospital you work at. Typically there’s a morning, day and Night Shift. You can do 5 8’s, 4 10’s or 3 12 hour shifts. It just depends on your work preference and hospital
@@cierrabreanna oooh okay def would rather 4 10’s night shifts😭
How's the Lincoln University California for sonography course?
What do you think about doing a sonography program online with only 1 lab day ? 😅
It can be tough because you need that hands on experience. I learn best hands on, and being able to use the machine helped me with physics, but I’m sure once you start clinicals, you’ll be able to practice more!
So is a sonographer the same as an ultrasound technician?
Hi! No it’s not. I probably said technician by accident on this video, I apologize. Ultrasound technologist/sonographer is the same thing, but technician deal more with the machines, like how to run it, fix it etc!
I am an 18 year old male and African American do u think that matters because it's mostly women???
I been to a few facilities where their are male sonographers and they love their job. It is definitely a female dominated career, but there definitely are men in this career. You may need to have a chaperone for invasive procedures like transvaginals, but other than that I think you’ll do fine.
Unfortunately, we are the minority in this field, but that’s the same in any medical career. It’s just something that takes some adjusting. There are a lot of African Americans applying for sonography programs though and they are doing great!
Any guy doing sonography I want start my career
I am a male, thinking about it!
@@christianbuonpastore5189 you know anyone in the field
Trying to see which type of sonography I want to do and I don't know if I want to death part of the con .
It can be hard. It takes some adjusting to, but it all depends on where you work. A level 1 trauma hospital is wayyy different from a outpatient clinic/facility in ultrasound
hey girl ! im a junior in highschool and for my future career I would like to be a ultrasound technician! when im out of Highschool should i Start trying to find programs ?
yes start now while you’re young!
@@drewchristophe thank you so much !!🥰
Hey hun! Yes, start looking to see what's out there and go on tour/do research to see if that's a program you'd be interested in. It's always great to have a head start!
@@cierrabreanna thank you girl 🥰 i really appreciate it !!!!
you should look into dual enrollment programs at your high school. You could graduate with your degree right out of HS.
Does sonography consist of a lot of mathematics?
Not really, but you’ll need to know the physics of ultrasound and pass the SPI to graduate from ultrasound school
What’s better an associates or bachelors program, and what’s the Dufy?
It honestly doesn’t make a difference if you have a bachelors versus a associates
I am stuck between doing nursing or sonography
I’m sure you’ll do great in which ever you choose!
Is it hard work in school?
Is 50k too much for schooling? In you guys opinion!
It depends on what you see as worth it for for school. Apply to as many scholarships as possible and try to save your money as much as possible!
How much is the pay?
Was you a sonography first or RT first ?
Im trying to get a career get top dollar and not go in circles with education
Do you have some of the study notes? I plan on applying th for the fall of 2024, I can give you my email so I can start studying.
What type of sonographers is better?
Hi! I depends on you and your personality. Some people flock to certain specialties more than others
hi ! can you elaborate more on the speciality and personality ? thank you:)
can you recommend an online program for this flied
It depends on your learning style. Online way be more convenient for your lifestyle, but in-person may be better if you’re a hands on learner!
THANK YOUU! I’m a senior and got accepted into college. I want to go into cardiac sonography and for some reason lately i’ve been doubting it. But you’ve pushed me to go for it, you’re the best 🫶🏼
Another Cardiac Sonographer here, it is a great course. Very challenging but also rewarding.
Thank you so much! You’re going to do great!! Congratulations!
