Well, they are all college level courses and thus require a lot of work. Clinicals usually don't happen until after your first year of classes.
After graduation, you should expect to stand in long lines trying to find a job because there aren't any out there.

It has been a long time since I was in x-ray school so I'm sure the course work has changed alot. Perhaps a more recent grad could help out with this part of your question.

Getting a degree in Business Admin, Accounting & Finance, Engineering, or IT are all fields where you will have more chances to find work.

Quit wasting your time and move on. It truely isn't workth it.

Just to answer your question....and it may be late...school is a combination of class and clinical work. Pay attention in both, but more importance should be placed on clinical work. Because the market is so tight, it is important that your clinical work be on point. Make good grades, do excellent work, and get along with the techs and upper management so that there is an opportunity offered to you post graduation. Make sure you understand the material becauase some of it can go over your head at times.

Although this post is negative, it is somewhat true. The job market is saturated, so consider wht you would like to do, what you are interested in as a career, not where the money is. The job market is bad for all professions, no field is exempt. These are the times we are in now. Trust God and let Him lead you. He will leaad you where you need to be and wont leave your ide.
