Of the 23 other students comprising the group that I entered nursing school with, three of them are men. The class that is graduating at the end of next week I believe has 1 male student, and as far as I know the class immediately behind mine has 1 as well. This is about 60 students (some classes have had students drop), with 6 of them being males; that's only 1 in 10.
So we know that male nurses are few and far between, but how old are we?
The 1 student in the class graduating next week is 28.
The 1 student in the class that entered the semester after mine is at least 30 (a second career-er I believe).
Of the 4 in my class, 2 are about 45, 1 is 40, and then there is me...21.
How old are you guys? How old when you started school?
I waited for 2.5 years and finally got in at age 23. My wife was one of the lucky ones who didn't have to wait in that crappy lottery system and got in at age 19 and is now a 22 years old already a nurse.
I'm not sure if you (asianone) are replying to my post or the entire thing, because I havent started my program yet, I just met all the people at orientation, thats how I knew how many men there are. I'll let you know how it goes once I start...
