I remember having the same problem as a Swiss exchange student in high school in the US.

I missed a perfect score in my first geography exam there, where we had to calculate timezone, exactly because of this... I thought it was so much more logical to have 12am follow 11am... I was very annoyed to not get 100 in that exam just for such an annoying format...

In retrospective it does make sense actually... as soon as you pass noon (meridium) you are in the post-meridian, not ante anymore...

Better would be if the formst would use 00:00am and 00:00pm... This way you would have a switch from am to pm and v.v. when the time goes from 11:59 to 0, i stead of to 12.
