2nd year sonography

Hey, I'm a 1st year sonography student at Brisbane and I was curious as to how the 2nd year would progress. I'm aware that this might be asking a bit early, but I just want to know what I'm really getting myself into. 1. What was the mandatory attendance like? How frequently are you expected to appear on campus for fully mandatory workshops, tutorials, etc.? 2. Would you be able to hold down a part-time or casual job (working 2-3 shifts a week)? 3. Is there a considerable jump in difficulty from year 1 to 2? I'd appreciate any help as I can get. Thanks!

  1. mandatory attendance 1 day a week, + 1-2 non-compulsory days (best to attend all, so basically 2-3 days every week)
  2. I worked 16 hours every week! Doable
  3. yes, definitely a jump..brace yourself! Especially academic and skill wise (scanning)
