Hey everyone!
If you're maybe thinking of doing eng lang for year 12 or are going into it this year, this is for you. I've put together a video explaining everything you need to know (how lang compares to the other Englishes, if it's hard, study load and commitments etc.) check it out if you're interested 
(also it's gone to YT kids by accident so feel free to comment any questions here in the meantime)

Current 2nd year in Monash radiography + medical imaging here.
Similar to what beep_boop has said, you would probably enjoy radiography if you a) enjoy patient interaction but also like mostly working on your own, b) can shoulder through the high workload, and most of all c) enjoy study in many different fields and combining them to applications in real clinical settings.
My experience with the course so far:
The course content VERY heavily leans on human anatomy/physiology/pathology, as well as physics (how the X-ray machines work, image processing, radiation phys mostly). There will also be a bit of patient care/communication study involved.
Repeating beep boop's wise words, if you like the field, it's not easy to get bored in medical imaging. Many different modalities like CT and MRI, which are super different in work style than gen X-ray (although you will mostly study generals for year 1-2). Placements/the job themselves also involve a LOT of walking around, being on the move, and also visiting different wards/departments.
While studying, you'll be able to kind of tell whether medical imaging is a career you will enjoy. Getting to try everything out firsthand (both in labs and on placement) is not super common and I think something we are pretty fortunate to have.
It sets you up really well for working as a radiographer. A lot of graduates I've spoken to say that they feel fairly comfortable going in, since you'll have almost a year worth of placement experience under your belt!
Quite high workload with a lot of contact hours in first year. There will be placements every semester, which can also mean slightly shorter holidays/less time at uni.
However, I would probably describe the academic semesters not as being shorter, but more condensed. The material isn't particularly difficult but there is a copious amount of it to get through.
Assessment-wise, there are usually a couple exams (closed book and usually in-person) and sometimes roleplay assessments as well.
Hope this gives a bit of insight! Happy to answer any questions too
Hey everyone - haven't posted on AN for a while now but I am back!

'ello maths methoders!
I'm a bit of an old AN'er now, so for those who don't know me, I'm wingdings - I graduated in '21 and have been tutoring methods ever since. Over the last year, I've edited both the ATARnotes course notes and topic tests for 3/4, as well as assisted 20+ students, many of whom were 40+ scorers.
This year I am excited to be offering access to my original topic tests for both 1/2 and 3/4 methods. I write these tests for my students from scratch each week, with a complete answer guide given at the end of the week. You'll be able to get access to all of these and will also be welcome to make suggestions/requests for different topics and problems.
Fill in the form here if this sounds like something you're interested in and I'll contact you asap with more info!
Thanks everyone and all the best w your studies this year

beep_boop AHH congrats beep boop on your results! Welcome to the medical imaging club, hope you'll enjoy it (pretty crazy sometimes LOL) can't wait for your uni journal. All the very best for 2023!!
Hi swheels,
Obviously scores vary from year to year, but I'd say from experience a 40+ is more than possible. I had almost identical scores to you doing methods in 2021, coming from a moderately strong cohort, and ended up with 42 raw. Either way, don't stress you've done great!
