George,
My point being that every standard or licensing exam still has those who
just "squeak" by. You are not told that when you look at your doctor's
diploma hanging on the wall of his cold, boring, twenty year old magazine
covered waiting room how he finished in his class, correct?
As a Registered Nurse, one has to "coach" new doc's along sometimes in
the middle of a particularly hairy situation: "Uhm, no, I would not mix the
dextrose with that drug or you will blow that IV I finally was able to
start, Doctor. How about mixing it in Normal Saline and using the
hep-lock?"
Even a room full of straight A students will have those who are less
talented in one area than the others. Just because a guy has a straight A
GPA, would you let him necessarily lodge a 32 gauge sewing needle and
drainage tube (chest tube for drainage of the lungs) into your chest without
asking questions as to if it was needed?
I tend to ask a lot of questions to make sure the guy holding a
particular license EARNED it. (By the way, anyone else get those annoying
"Buy a Diploma" spam mails??)
You probably already know that about me though, right? ;0)
Eric
