| Apr 26, 2014 at 3:17 | comment | added | Major Stackings | @DVK. Agreed. No known canon examples. But kids being kids, and JKR's kids having ego issues, and given the long history of Hogwarts, it just makes sense. Haters gonna hate. | |
| Apr 26, 2014 at 2:46 | comment | added | DVK-on-Ahch-To | @MajorStackings - aside from Harry Potter, I don't remember any canon examples of people "coveting" some student they knew of beforehand (and in likely cases when that happened, it would have been prior students' relative who was likely to end up in the same house) | |
| Apr 26, 2014 at 2:13 | comment | added | Major Stackings | I would imagine many House Members were disappointed when coveted students were assigned elsewhere, or when "undesirables" joined the their own houses ranks. | |

| Apr 26, 2014 at 1:25 | comment | added | DVK-on-Ahch-To | Well, I have an answer that fulfills the letter of your question, although my guess is it may not necessarily fulfill what you meant to ask (i am guessing you'd be more interested with the choice for themselves, but the question is not clear on that. My answer is about choice for another person). | |
