* ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'' was bitten by the spider which gave him his powers when he was fifteen, which would probably put him at sophomore age, and all of his classmates were roughly the same age. The same is true in ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'' where, thanks to {{ComicBookTime}}, he stays for the whole run.

High schools are a very common setting, which means the hero is generally a high school student. But how old should they be? If they're seniors, there's a chance that [[SeniorYearStruggles graduation issues might interfere with the plot]]. If a first year, they're new to the school. Either one can complicate things. To avoid that, the writers will often opt to put them between the two poles, leading to this trope. The hero is free to have the widest range of plots without stressing about graduation or being new.
