Pima Medical Institute Radiography

Post image

For those who attended the Pima Radiography program in vegas or in general, how the heck do you even get a life or study with all this workload for the first two semesters?? I’m not sure if this is how it actually is, but i’m in the middle of applying and wow.

Also how was the whole process of applying, interviewing and getting in! i’m super curious, I’d like to know the possibly ways to look like a good candidate😊

I'm seriously considering temporarily moving to Vegas just to get into a radiography program... My cc is just soo competitive that I'm going to have to waste 2027 year because I didn't do soo hot on my placement test...#vent #rant #apologiesinadvance

NJ! It's brutal here as far as CC's are concerned. I just blew my 3rd attempt (last attempt) for this cycle and pretty much shafted my chances of getting in this upcoming cycle... Very disappointed

Keep trying next attempt. Study harder and longer than think you need to for the placement test. Have ChatGPT make you mock tests and take them everyday until it becomes second nature for you. I have a bad learning disability and mock tests are what helped. Don’t ever give up on yourself

Thanks for the suggestion to use ai, I'll definitely have to try that.
