radiation therapy - clinical placements ANYWHERE? (1 Viewer)

[2006hsc]

im interested in taking this course, but i see in the UAC guide it says that they place you anywhere in clinics in NSW for 24-26 weeks? If so thats a pain in the ass. What are some other cons about this subject?

if you do anything along the lines of radiation therapy/physio/sports science [cumberland campus] yes, you will have to do quite a lot of placement WHERE EVER they want you to be. Just think, 24-26 weeks away from your parents...
it will be like a nice long schoolies, besides the alcohol, and the lack of work

got quite a few friends doing radiation therapy at the moment. in the end, i'm pretty sure it pays well and you will be studying next to a massive graveyard. but i can't really give any constructive pros and cons

good luck with your hsc

hi, is there a lot of physics involved in that course?

Yes, ull be doing physics from the day u enter the course and the day you leave it.

Clinicals are fun, much better than lectures anywyas. Depending on different ppls opinions, clinicals can be seen either a pro or a con.
