About 15 years ago (gee it seems like yesterday!), my husband went back to school in California and did the 2 year rad tech degree there. He is still working in the field and I can't say he loves it, but he is still in the field. It allowed us to move out of the rat race and move to Flagstaff Arizona. He makes decent money and can now work part time. (I'm a paralegal)

He had never gotten great grades in high school, but when he wanted to go back to school and apply himself he got all A's! What do you know? It's amazing what a little maturity can do!

If you want to do something like this, I say GO FOR IT. It is a really small bit of dedication to obtain a pretty much guaranteed job and good money! Rad techs are in demand now as you know.
