I noticed in the Nursing Administration office the other day that the large frames with the class pictures are getting smaller and smaller. Each year's graduating class has individual pictures taken and they are all put into a large frame and hung on the wall. As you go down the wall you notice subtle changes. Like the year they stopped wearing their nursing cap for pictures, or the year they started wearing individual uniforms instead of all the same one. One year they started wearing their school nursing pin but didn't have them the years before.
Anyway. The smaller the frame got the more I was wondering how our class measured up. We have somewhere close to 70 students starting in August. A certain percent will make it to the second year and then a certain percent of those will actually graduate. Then of course a percent of those will pass the boards. Each obstacle seems to dwindle us down. A&P weeded out alot of people. But that was before we even started the program.
So what I want to know is, how many were accepted into your first year?
And if your further on in your studies, how many have made it as far as you are from the starting group.
