JackJess - assuming you put your current two schools as first and second choice the result would have been the same. The only difference would have been if you didn't get either of your choices, in which case you would have been allocated the nearest school that still had places after allocations had been made.

It is awful to not get any of 6 choices, but it does seem to happen every year and it does seem to resolve itself by September with most people getting a place they are happy with. Fingers crossed for those having to do the waiting game
