Medic Student with ET questions

[RomeViking09]

I am a medic student about to finish school in march on my 2nd go around (failed PHTLS due to lack of sleep first time but passed with a 98 this time). Right now in my class (8 students including me) we have all but 1 who has at lest 4 of the 5 required tubes. The one who does not had two in the field and has yet to go to the OR. To set up I have 7 tubes on 8 attempts (1 field on 2nd attempt, some day missed a tube w/ glidescope in the ER b/c I did not have the proper styliet, and 6 OR tubes all on first attempt). How often are folks getting to go to the OR and tube after they are out of school, and how often are people getting to tube in the ER? (Note: the missed tube was a patient who was pulled in the ambulance bay POV by her friend in full arrest that we took in to the trauma bay and the glidescope was thrown in front of me by a RN who then tried to had me a 4.0 Uncuffed tube for a 50 y/o patient and the doc missed once before noticing it was not the proper styliet for the guildescope, and I had a good view of the chords in the camera just could not see the tube)
