I’m so happy I found your channel you’re super positive and have a clear outlook, every video I’ve watched on Rad tech has been negative and horrifying so it’s refreshing to see your videos.
I can’t wait to start my program! 💕
aw thank you so much 💛 I’m excited for you!
I love your rad tech school videos, I start my program in a few weeks! Thanks for letting us in on your experience 🤗
Darian Hallsten me too, Im sooo excited 😄
I'm so excited for you! 💛
Yay I start my program soon too! August 26. Good luck to you!! I’m so excited to start
@@rahjahdat watching because I’m about to start! Any advice?
How was it? I’m starting soon!
I love your rad tech videos so much! In 2 weeks I’ll be starting college, after I get my prerequisites out of the way I’ll be applying for x-ray school! I’m honestly so scared to start college😳 but watching your videos has been helping me not be so nervous! ❤️
College is such an exciting time!!! You will do so great 🥰
update?
Your T-shirt unintentionally giving me fall vibes! I’m so ready for summer to end
ah you're so right! I love summer since ND is SO COLD for like 7 months out of the year, but also love cozy fall vibes 😂
Finally got into a Rad Tech program after not getting in last year, so excited!!!
Congratulations!!!
hows it going???
@@TejRecordz I actually ended up doing only one semester and switching to surgical technology!
This video came at the most perfect timing! I begin my first semester in two weeks!
ahhh that's perfect! Good luck! ☺️
Me too!! 😍

hey I am interested in this but I don’t know yet I like that it’s high paying in only 2 year degree and the prerequisites.. anyways do you see some horrifying severe injuries and how do you continue working in that moment.. that’s the only worry and passing the exams.. my math is not the best but trying my hardest. Trying to save up to pay per semester. So that I don’t go into student loan debt
your hair is always so perfect😭😻
you’re perfect 🥺💛
Srsly
At first I was nervous of doing this program, but now that I watch your videos, i'm SOOOO excited to start!! You give out such great advice and tips!! Thank you so much for being such a positive person towards this difficult YET exciting program! Congrats on your 2nd year Julia!! 🤗
thank you so much! Good luck with your program! ☺️
I am studying medical imaging science also but our program is 4 years and we'll cover X-ray, CT, MRI, US, Mammogram and i am sooo excited..I am on my second year now and we started clinical this semester also and it's soo fun
that's really cool!!
what school is that?
Omg Julia your eyes in the freaking thumbnail look amazing 😍 congrats on almost finishing your first year !
aw thank you!!! ☺️
Your channel has come into my life at a perfect time! I just got denied for my first application into the program BUT I’m feeling good because there are definitely more classes I can take in the meantime to better prepare. I’m hoping I’ll make it into the next round; at my prospective school most people get in on their second try. Thanks for the help you’ve been offering in your videos! I happened to stumble upon your channel yesterday and can’t wait to binge all your past videos too! You’ve already taught me so much more about the field I’m going to be going into. Good luck to you in your studies and future endeavors! Xx
Hey! Last year I was denied. It was such a blessing! I took classes that were required for the program. Now I only have the the required Radiology classes to take for the next 2 years!
^^^ I always believe that things happen for a reason! The first time I applied, I didn't realize that my chem lab credit didn't transfer so I technically wasn't supposed to apply, but my adviser didn't catch it. So I re-took the class and re-applied and got in the following year!
I HIGHLY recommend taking those extra classes beforehand to give yourself the least stress possible while you're in the actual program! I took an online ethics class my second semester in the program and it added so much extra work for myself rather than if I had just taken it before I applied.
thank you so much for your kind words, Aly 🧡 I'm always here!
Hi, Aly, it took me 3 years of applying before I got accepted. I ended up getting my Associates in the meantime. please don't give up.
Good luck becoming a 2nd year student! I will officially be one on Monday! I'm so excited!!
I'm so happy for you! rock out your last year 🤩
Ur makeup looks awesome!!!! Could you do an updated makeup tutorial??? I've literally watched all your videos lol 😫
Yes I can do that! I literally only wear face makeup & mascara though so it will probably be boring 😂
I'm currently doing a couple of prerequisites in order to get into the medical imaging program to be an Xray tech. I'm looking forward to my future and SO GRATEFUL i found your channel!
that's super exciting! best of luck to you! ☺️
Thanks Julia! This video had a lot of great info & I really liked how honest your responses are. I agree with everything you said here. You’re a hard worker. Keep it up!
Omg I’m a second year X-ray student!! This is so exciting to watch a TH-camr that shares the same stress
Ahhh no way! ☺️ I love hearing from other RT majors!
Just got notice from my school that I got accepted into the Rad Tech Program 😇 and start this Fall! I’m soooooo excited!
Congratulations! 🤍
I just found your videos today! I start my prereqs next week for Rad Tech in NY.
I agree that people think you have to go into another modality. I just graduated in May and I was wanting to maybe do CT or MRI but I got a job doing just X-ray and I love it so far and am glad I didn’t do a modality!
That’s why I love the field because a person can always work in xray for awhile and then if you feel like you want a change, you can always advance ☺️ so much room for growth!
& also congratulations on graduating! ☺️
Love these videos that remind me of why i go to school for medical imaging🤩
heck yessss girl!
I love you girl! thank you for reading and answering my question. I am so excited!
SO excited for you! 💛
Thank you SO MUCH! ❤️❤️❤️ I wished you lived closer to me- we could literally be best friends. Your my twin!
youtube besties for the meantime 🥰
Your hair is so DANG FLAWLESS PRETTY. PLZ SHARE
thank you!!!
That shirt!!! So perf for the video I love it 😂 you go girl for finishing your first year!!!! 💕
thank you!!!😇
i just found your channel. radiology is my back up plan if dental hygiene doesnt work out lol. im currently a dental assistant and love taking mouth xrays
Awesome!! I was interested in pursuing that path too ☺️
If you turn the head on your oblique c spine more than the body (for RPO AND LPO) it will open up the intervertebral foremen and make it easier as long as the patient can tolorate. Also at your point stundent tech jobs help a ton.
Thanks! I do plan on applying to a student tech position as soon as one opens!
Love these videos!! I’ll start radiology school on the 19th!! Nervous, but excited I can’t wait to start learning more about it!
so excited for you!!
Julia Kristine thank you!
Thank you so much for this video it answers so many questions I have about going in this degree!
I'm so glad it was helpful!
I love college q&a videos!!
I love love love your hair!!!! 💛💛💛😊
aw you’re so sweet! Thank you!
Love all your videos about your x Ray school hahaha so cool!
aw I'm glad you enjoy them :)
wow congrats on finishing your first year!!! 🤩
thanks so much, Gabbie! 😋
Your radiologic technology videos have been so helpful to me! I'm getting ready to start next week and I'm beyond excited. For my program, we are only using ebooks. Would you recommend taking notes on a device or write everything out or both? Thanks in advance. (:
Congratulations!!!
I highly recommend typing notes if your instructors allow it! There was no way I could keep up if I had to handwrite everything! I did keep a notebook handy just in case we did practice equations but I did everything on my MacBook in Microsoft word ☺️
Your shirt omggggg!!! SO CUTE!!! I always send your videos to my sister...I think she should go to school for this! ;)
aw thank you!! It's such a good field to pursue! If she ever has questions, I'm always here! :)
your hair color omg.... so pretty
thank you! 🥰
yay love these videos! I am finishing my prerequisites for the rad tech program this fall & I hope to get into the program next year or 2021 🙏🏼✨
ahhh I’m so excited for you! ☺️
You are seriously sooo pretty!
aw Kali you’re so sweet!!
did you do physics in high school? I didn't, and I want to apply but my worst fear is struggling because I didn't do physics :((( btw I love your videos and you're so chill!!!
noo, but you will take radiographic physics once you're in the program! It's honestly not as hard as you think it will be! If I can do it, you can :) thank you so much! 💛
@@JuliaKristine omg thank you for replying!!! I appreciate it so much! you just calmed my nerves a whole lot 💕 💕
You’re gorgeous!! Love your channel!💕
aw thank you, Allie 💛
I'm Starting Rad program in the Fall! I'm so nervous about my interview how did you do it?? Thank you love all your vlogs!
My program didnt have an interview!
Ty so much for sharing your info I’m getting excited just to sign up for this it seems interesting 🤔
good luck!!
cant believe I didnt see this video omg - love the shirt you decided to wear ahahah
my biggest fan though ily
Loved the video, amazing job as always! I'm going into my 3rd year of rad tech in September. Any tips for studying for the registry exam? I write mine in 2 years and I'm already stressing.
Love you and good luck on your 2nd year!
ahhh! One more year to go for you?!
I graduate in May & will likely take my registry exam as soon as I can, so I've started to prepare a binder that has all of my study material in it from every class! I actually just showed it at 4:30 in my last vlog! (th-cam.com/video/LUYQFRk3kR8/w-d-xo.html) In November, we're taking our first ARRT simulation. When the time comes a little closer, I will definitely show how I will be studying for boards :)
I just graduated and took my registry in May. I highly recommend RadTechBootCamp & RadReview you do have to pay a fee for both unless your school pays for them like mine did but they are amazing sources to prep you for the registry. I ended up making a 90 on my registry thanks to these sources. Just thought I’d help out my other future rad techs 😊
thank you so much, Chelsea! ☺️
I‘m from Switzerland and starting x-ray school in fall. I‘m in a 3 year program where we learn x-ray, CT, MRI, Mammogram, Ultrasound, Interventional Radiology, Nuclear medicine and Radiation therapy .
congratulations!
The head and spine was killing me
Hi!! I remember you talking about being able to take X-rays at work before you graduated as like a intern tech or something. Stupid question, but how is that possible/legal? I want to convince my employer to make a position like that at my job lol
It depends on the state! It’s legal here in ND because I was shadowed by a registered tech!
literally have no connection with x ray but I love your videos
I appreciate you taking your time to watch!!!
What about the question of what makes you qualify for this program?pleas let me know
I'm taking pre requisites to apply for the rad program in June next year for my school. I really hope to get in🥺
Good luck with your schooling & application!!
Hey I was debating between nursing and radiology.... do you have to use critical thinking on your exams?
Critical thinking is a huge part of being in x-ray, especially during trauma cases when patients can't move!
WHAT SCHOOL HAS ALL IN ONE?! also how long does it normally take someone start to finish ?
I don't know that answer so I would google it!
My program only taught general xray. The time it takes you is going to entirely depend on how long it takes you to complete your pre-reqs, if you get accepted the first time you apply, what program you're in (AAS vs BS), if your program has additional pathways (CT, MRI) etc.
I recommended the Insta post hangout!! Woot Woot! also I think you can get a discount as a Health Professional from Brooks but not sure how to get it!
thank you! I will look into it 😊
Hey girl! I take the registry this upcoming May, I was just wondering if you had any tips for how you plan to start preparing for the registry. How do you plan on studying or organizing everything to study. I honestly don't even know where to begin lol
Hi! I actually did a video showing how I prepared my registry binder. Otherwise, my class will be going over registry prep more this upcoming fall semester so I will be making videos in the future about this!

Oh also! A girl named Chelsea commented below on this video that she used RadTechBootCamp & RadReview to study! There’s a fee but she said it helped her get a 90 on her boards!
@@JuliaKristine Awesome!! Thank you so much! I will be looking forward to more videos throughout the upcoming semesters!
I really want to be a rad tech but I’m honestly so bad at math...
I’ve barely ever used math as a tech except on my boards exam
@@JuliaKristine my college requires two years of math (alg 1, alg 2, geo) and science (bio, chem, physics) and there’s honestly no way I can pass both math and chem :/
Hi so I recently was accepted into the RT program but I was wonder after getting accepted did you have your orientation prior to the program starting or was it separate from from your schedule and how long was orientation?
*typo or was the orientation apart of your semester schedule
Orientation was the first two weeks of my program, so it was integrated at the start of the first semester!
Julia Kristine thanks 😊
I want to buy brooks so bad but my program requires white leather shoes and I can't find anything that I think would be comfy!
aw that's so hard! We're lucky to be able to wear any type of shoe. Comfy/supportive shoes are so important! 😕
Hello,
Do you have to take certification exams once your done graduating ?
If you decide to go into another modality - CT, MRI, ultrasound, etc
Hi i'm also radtech here in the phil but unfortunetly i don't passed the board exam ☹️☹️☹️
Where did you get your shirt?? I need it 😍

Trying to save up to pay per semester. So that I don’t go into student loan debt
Did you ever make that instagram community chat?
no I did not!
Is this a certification or a associate thing?
I have an Associates in Applied Science degree and there are also programs for Bachelors of Science
@@JuliaKristine thanks 😊
Where is you top from💖
It’s linked. It’s likely sold out because it’s over a year old
Loved this and you are GORGEOUS!! 💕 new subbie & I post every Saturday if you want to check out my channel! 😊
Get dasko shoe it an investment more than expense
I like doing dirty things with dansko shoes!!
