COM14: Invincible

There is so much pride in our class.  Momentum is rising as things keep going our way.  Here is a list of things our class has accomplished in one semester:

1) Male beauty pageant
2) Basketball against 2nd years
3) Basketball against College of Pharmacy
4) Dance team against College of Pharmacy (pending, expected)
5) All around grades and entry stats.
6) Thanksgiving Football game against 2nd years

I wonder if the school grooms every class to feel the way we do. Professors continually tell us how we are the best class they have had in the history of the school, in talent and drive. As I learned in my sociology class, people rise and fall to the level that is expected of them.

We are still rising.  With each exam, our average has increased, with an unprecedented mean of 87 on the most recent fundamentals test. I can't wait to see how we did on this morning's Cardiovascular test. 

Some say to be wary of hubris; many great people have been undermined by arrogance.  But in this case of medical school, I think we should ride out this wave as long as we can.  Let the confidence fuel us and drive us to tackle every problem, uncover every detail, pursue every point.  Because we know we can, and will, win.

It's a positive feedback loop!
