At least from what I've seen, I would dare say the average is up in the 30s, simply because of the fact that the classes I've seen have one or two guys pushing 50 or 60.

Now the median, on the other hand, might be down in the late twenties.

And I'm 23, and I got an A- in statistics.

I'd say at least 27 or 28. In a year of being a regional CA I can count on one hand how many FO's I've had younger than me and I'm only 26.

2 1/2 years ago I was the youngest in the class at 23 (just turned 23 the month prior). A good friend was 21 when she got hired 3 years ago.
