Bell Curve

Poster Message:
There IS a round one. The videos the pnm's submit and the chapter ones the pnm's watch are now round one. The video component came into play out of necessity during the pandemic and it turned out to be more efficient than having hoards of girls go to all the houses for a very brief, cursory look that did no good for either sororities or pnm's. The grade risks and QR's have always been identified before round one, as have every house's tops, and the RFM numbers have been set already as well. It has absolutely nothing to do with any chapters having their bid lists set prior to actual recruitment because that simply DOES NOT happen. The pool of pnm's is a bell curve: on the left are the ones more likely to get cut, on the right are the more likely to be asked back, and in the very large middle portion is everyone else who decisions have to be made about DURING RECRUITMENT WEEK. The bell curve for each house has different criteria depending on what that house looks for and the pool of pnm's in it gets refined over the week, but that large as-yet undetermined group in the middle exists for every single house until the pref lists are made.
