ARRT Exam Security: The Bright Line Between What's OK and What's Not

The American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) takes the confidentiality of its examinations very seriously. Every candidate for certification should be aware of the potential consequences of violating both the candidate agreement on the application form they sign and the non-disclosure agreement that precedes the exam at the test center.

The scenario depicted in the video — dramatizing just one example of an exam disclosure violation — illustrates the possible impact on a candidate's career. Additional information can be found at www.arrt.org / Examinations / Exam Security.

I disagree as well.

A person with a 2 year degree will take the same ARRT exam as the person with a 4 year degree. If the person with the 2 year degree has enough info to pass the exam, what does that say for the 4 yr degree?...Waste of money, unless you want to teach or go into management.

I disagree!

Having a 4 year degree does not mean that you've had any more training in the primary discipline than the 2 year programs. It just means that all your general ed requirements are included in your degree requirements.

Don't believe me? Compare the core curriculum of 2 and 4 year programs.

Healthcare admin courses don't teach you to how to produce a quality decub chest x-ray.

Many have expressed opinions about the associate degree requirement. Some argue that it's irrelevant to the purposes of certification. Others, like you, believe an associate degree standard is not high enough. ARRT's rationale is that the profession relies on the skills and knowledge developed through the types of coursework included in the general education requirements of an associate degree program. We're interested in your thoughts, too...(continued in next post)
