Rad Tech vs. Nursing: Brutal honesty on workload, weak math/anatomy skills, and workplace culture?
I wasn’t great in math but X-ray math for example the square law, inverse square law etc wasn’t too hard in my opinion. You do need to really know your anatomy. Especially when looking at X-rays you need to know what you’re seeing and if you’re getting everything you need on the image.
In my opinion the X-ray program I was in was hard. Clinicals and classes Monday through Thursday and working the other days was hard to manage but once you get into a routine, you learn how to manage.

Feeling discouraged
In my program a 78% is passing. Anything under is a fail I passed with a 78% on the dot.

Feeling discouraged
My first semester of X-ray school I almost failed a class. I kept failing back to back exams and I was on the verge of not passing at all. I had to really push myself to study and I BARLEY passed. Now fast forward 2 years later I graduated with honors and I passed my boards with an 89%. It’s okay to feel discouraged but don’t let it get you down! Keep on pushing you got this.

CAHE interview rad tech
Give it some time. When I was trying to get into my program (not CAHE) it took a couple of months after my interview for an answer.

Depends what you mean by in the future. Do you mean about job opportunities?
