me too! I'm only 15 so I'm still trying to figure out what i want to do when I'm older but I think this is the right path! Im soo excited for the future journey 🙏🏽
Hi im thinking to do aswell,but most of the uni's asking for clinincal placements as an entry requirement .Could you please tell how could i get the placement without qualification as sonographer?
I've been struggling to choose a major that would work for me when I go back to school after taking a few years off due to medical issues. I had previously taken courses towards a chemical engineering degree but my heart is no longer in it. I decided I want to go into the medical field but couldn't figure out what I want to do. So anyways, I found your shorts a week or so ago and you reminded me that sonography exists. After looking into it more, I'm pretty sure that I want to go into sonography, it just seems like it would be a good fit for me. Thank you for the inspiration! I'm planning to go back to school in the fall and start my prerequisites for sonography!
I’m already starting my prerequisites too I wanted to be a fireman but i have sickle cell and recently jus had a hip replacement right now Im an EMT but now I have to go back to school and get a new career so me and my gf are both gonna be sonographers she’s ahead of me on prerequisites lol but it’s a grind and I’m locked in
@babalpreetkaur1733 no. My school's program have applications in the fall and starts the next fall. I also have not completed all of the prerequisites to apply to my school's program, so I will be applying next fall. I am also considering radiography but I'll just keep doing what I'm doing and see how life leads me.
Many schools also have a combined general/vascular program. It takes about 4 years to become a sonographer. That is what I did with my school. Sonographer for 3 years now and love it!
If I may ask, how old are you? I'm 44 and this is my dream job! I started at 18 and never got to finish due to pregnancy, then marriage, and 5 more babies...i still to this day want to do this!
I’m applying at the end of the fall semester and I’m terrified. They only have around 12 to 18 spots to fill. I’ve worked so hard and if I don’t get in I’m not sure what my next steps will be.
I’m starting my prerequisites in the fall and yes. Pretty much if you have no pre reqs/ge it will take around 2 years to get that done plus another 18-24 months of the actual DMS program. (Depending how long it is) almost 4 years of school.
I think it depends on where you work. I have seen positions with every work schedule possible including day and night shifts. I did notice a lot of them have rotating Saturday hours as well.
Clinicals for this program will most likely be during regular business hours. (I’ve done clinicals before) So you will most likely need to find a night job. Good luck!
How do you have a job doing the classes. The programs I’m seeing the classes are full time during the day like 9-5 pm. You would need time to study even if you get a night job and job with enough hours
In Texas there are needed based on my research Academic Prerequisite: College Algebra (MATH 1314) Introductory Physics (PHYS 1305) Human Anatomy and Physiology (BIOL 2401 & BIOL 2402 or BIOL 2404).
Mam. How to be a sonographer after completely bsc radiology and imaging technology in India. Which course should I consider after it to be a sonographer in Western countries..
Plz rply i did diploma in medical radiology and imaging technology from India now I wanna move canda so what job i get in canda nd how much they paid for it can i get job without taking any course or exam or We have to give exam
Hey, Is there anyone from Algonquin college? I wanna get some help regarding diagnostic medical sonography program. If anyone could help, it'd be so great. Thank you!
Those 2 years are intense. Also, that’s just for the program. Don’t forget the time spent doing prerequisites and general basic courses for the degree.
SO i challenge uou talk about the DOUBLE STANDARDS in sonography. Why female patients dont want male sonographers, yet female sonographers feel its totally ok, to do male genitals. Accredited????? My ass. Double standards?? Yes... and dont lie.
Yes I did! 1&2 and flash cards were my life, found fun and funny ways to memorize things, quiz yourself a lot with the flash cards it eventually registers I promise!
I just had a epiphany about being an ultra sound tech and am so excited!!
me too! I'm only 15 so I'm still trying to figure out what i want to do when I'm older but I think this is the right path! Im soo excited for the future journey 🙏🏽
I start my program in January & I am soooo freaking excited 😭
so next year?
Hi im thinking to do aswell,but most of the uni's asking for clinincal placements as an entry requirement .Could you please tell how could i get the placement without qualification as sonographer?
Best of luck!!! I’m wanting to do the same!!
How’s it going??
Good luck! I really want to be a sonographer I hope all goes well for u!

Omg literally me rn majoring in chemical engineering and realizing it’s not for me 😔
Did you start your sonography program?

Congrats! I'm actually applying for a Sonography program now. What is your favorite part of being a Sonographer?😊

I’m 21! I’m just now looking into it, life takes some people longer and that’s perfectly okay
❤❤❤I thought the same way!! I’m now 27 and I am so grateful for this comment 💗🔆
@@Yes-dy3nxim 21 too !
I'm 42 about to start DMS school in a month and I'm freaking out 😭
24 here, feeling the same way.
I think I may love you for explaining this so easily🥹❤️
I wanted to do this more than anything I’ve ever done in life… you make me feel like there’s still time
If I may ask, how old are you? I'm 44 and this is my dream job! I started at 18 and never got to finish due to pregnancy, then marriage, and 5 more babies...i still to this day want to do this!

@@yessssiiirrr inspiration, where u studying it from?
Thank you for the advice.
I’m applying at the end of the fall semester and I’m terrified. They only have around 12 to 18 spots to fill. I’ve worked so hard and if I don’t get in I’m not sure what my next steps will be.
I don’t know if it’s only me but she looks a lot like Katie feeny 😮
I start school in Spring of 2025 to take my generals and my preqs
Hey!! are you able to work full time and do the schooling and programs?
Where did you apply? It's so competitive here in California. Was thinking of moving to other states. What about florida?
Question? So is the associates in science separate from the program meaning that it’s going to be 2 years PLUS the 2 year or less program ? ???
I’m starting my prerequisites in the fall and yes. Pretty much if you have no pre reqs/ge it will take around 2 years to get that done plus another 18-24 months of the actual DMS program. (Depending how long it is) almost 4 years of school.
@@evelintamayo1994 Can 2 years diploma in Medical laboratory technologist, be a associate degree for sonography course?
do you need an associates of science before being able to get an associates in DMS?
Any info for nyc resident? How to get in the program? CUNY have this ultrasound tech program or not?
What’s the work hours like? Example, set hours 8-5pm? Weekends? Thanks!
I think it depends on where you work. I have seen positions with every work schedule possible including day and night shifts. I did notice a lot of them have rotating Saturday hours as well.
You’re gorgeous
That’s crazy in my country it takes at least 4 years to become a sonographer
question, do you have to complete pre-rec's in college or do you join the sono program straight out of high school?
My school requires prerequisites. You can look on their websites for what is required:)
if you dont mind can you tell me a about how much you make a month, I am very interested in becoming one but I wanna know if its worth it
Which is best for international students?
Are there any classes you need to take in high school?
Physics for sure. Anatomy if it's offered.
As an older person that has to work full time will I be able to complete the program?
Clinicals for this program will most likely be during regular business hours. (I’ve done clinicals before) So you will most likely need to find a night job. Good luck!
How do you have a job doing the classes. The programs I’m seeing the classes are full time during the day like 9-5 pm. You would need time to study even if you get a night job and job with enough hours
How many years it took you to complete everything?
Did you get into your program on your first try?
ThNk you
Did you have to take a TEAS test to get into the program? If so, how did you prepare?
My schools only offer cardiovascular and regular radiology can I still take one of them and get into ultrasound tech?
So does anyone know what classes in particular or do you need first an associates in whatever? Asking for my girl.
In Texas there are needed based on my research Academic Prerequisite:
College Algebra (MATH 1314)
Introductory Physics (PHYS 1305)
Human Anatomy and Physiology (BIOL 2401 & BIOL 2402 or BIOL 2404).

Hi

I dunno why dey pay massive amount just for two years of teaching
Those 2 years are intense. Also, that’s just for the program. Don’t forget the time spent doing prerequisites and general basic courses for the degree.
