Between 70-80 students apply each year?! I guess those are the perks of living in a major metropolitan area like Indy.

The interview process allows us to get the best of the best students that our school has to offer and it has always been that way and will continue to be that way.

I would like to know how many people apply to be on team 47 and exactly why they want the "best." I most definitely wouldn't be defined as "best" but look at me now, FIRST has changed my life and has the ability to change thousands of other students' lives. Why keep that from them?
