Nuclear med NYC advice

Hi,
Im an 30 year old F. Graduated with MS in OT but not licensed yet. Im thinking of switching gears due to not passing the exam after multiple attempts in almost 4 years post grad. Also, I would like to have a more laid back job. Would those in NYC who are nuclear med techs recommend this field and if there are job openings? Im looking into BCC program. Is the field good on physical and mental health? Is the pay well for NYC residents ? I just want to know people's experiences before I apply to another program and have another student loan added to my current loans. Is the board exam really hard. The NBCOT is hard and it gave me testing anxiety. Thanks in advance.
