Throughout this semester, we have been giving multiple opportunities to demonstrate our knowledge through practical evaluations and competency assessments. Within these assessments we have had to demonstrate how to properly establish the patient relationship, proper use of radiation devices and equipment, adhere to specific safety protocols for the patient and evaluating the images for any corrective actions. Throughout the semester we have done self reflection on how we think we did in the assessments. These are often done after competency tests in my procedures class and after practical evaluations in my patient management class.…

Students who have strong SAT scores will need to submit them if they decide to apply to a more selective college. They want to stand out in any way possible when there are many more applicants that have the similar resumes (Wong). “According to a 2013 article published in Stanford’s alumni journal, more than two-thirds—69 percent—of the college’s applicants in the previous five years with perfect SAT scores didn’t get in.” The SAT can also show that students are willing to study facts and vocabulary that they will likely never use in their everyday lives. This skill can show colleges that the potential student has a strong work ethic and a real desire for success.…
