Hey Killua! (Hunter x Hunter reference, right?)
The main courses for
undergrad radiography at the 'bigger unis' in Victoria would probably be Monash Uni's Bachelor of Radiography and Medical Imaging (link
here, located at Clayton campus) or RMIT's Bachelor of Applied Sciences (Medical Radiations), probably the Medical Imagining - Radiography stream (link
here, located at Bundoora campus).
Prereqs for undegrad radiography courses
For Monash, prereqs include:
- raw 30+ SS in English or English equivalent e.g. Literature (excluding EAL, which is 35+ raw)
- raw 25+ SS in Methods or Spesh
- raw 25+ SS in Bio or Physics, so Chem isn't required (this isn't to say that it won't be required at all during the degree)
ATAR required is 93+ (raw) if you have Monash guarantee (usually if you have SEAS i.e. special consideration like low SES area), otherwise, lowest selection rank (your ATAR + SEAS + subject adjustments, if available) is usually in the mid to high 97s. Generally I would aim for the latter.
For RMIT, prereqs include:
- complete either U1 and 2 of Chem or Bio, or U3/4 of Chem or Bio successfully
- raw 25+ SS in English or English equivalent (excluding EAL, which is 30+ raw)
- raw 20+ SS in Methods or Spesh
Lowest selection rank is around the 94-95 range for the Radiography stream.
Basically saying, if you want these two courses:
- Do alright in your English subject.
- Probably take Bio, seeing as that's the most versatile science subject across both courses. You'll probably have to take Biology eventually (in uni, if not in VCE) or will encounter aspects of it in the radiography course (same goes for most health-related courses).
- Methods is probably a subject you'll need to do (since Spesh requires Methods, if my memory is correct).
- Besides this, the rest of your subjects are basically up to you.
Unfortunately, I'm not so good at the
radiology side of things, so am not sure how to approach that. I also don't know how much chemistry is involved in radiology or radiography.
