Another kid in my neighborhood as well as myself was also appointed to USAFA. I feel like you could write a book about this. Does anyone know how rare this is?
I just thought it was kind of coolMultiple kids from the same high school get appointments every year.
No just a public high school in Indiana.Congrats. Do you attend a charter school or magnet school in New York. If so it happens more often since many HYPO kids come from different districts to the same school. But like you said if from the same block or district, it is rare unless you or your friend have Presidential, JROTC Noms in addition to MOC Noms. We have 3 kids Appointed to USNA from the same district up through January. 1 kid has USNA Supe Nom, 1 JROTC, 1 District Rep. So this makes total sense since only 1 can have District Rep Nom. Remaining 9 may fall under the NWL and hopefully few can get picked up with an Appointment. I'm not an expert on this topic of how exactly candidates get moved around in the Appointment process, but this makes sense to me.

What would be more interesting if one didnt get in but lets say on paper they were identical in terms of grades, test scores, and all the restOne of our veteran posters; Fencersmother; had both her sons; TWINS; receive an appointment the same year. (Class of 2012). I guess that's as close to the "Same Neighborhood" as you can get.
