Wow, you have definitely been busy. I havnt had a day off but it sounds like you have had a lot more going on. Its funny that your class ended up with the same amount of people at graduation as ours did, and we started out with so MANY. I think a few factors came into to play with that. For one, all public safety education in NC is essentially free. So anyone with an EMT cert can sign up. Also, the school I was at has one of the best medic schedules in the state. So a lot of folks want to get in the program. They make up for the ease of getting in to the program by washing out anyone who doesnt need to be there. So, really high attrition rate, but 100% certification pass rate on the first try.
