NO! Don't suicide bid. It actually lowers your chances of getting a bid to anywhere. The way RFM (release figure management) (i.e. bid matching) works is a very complicated system and hard to explain, but for those of us who know what we're talking about suiciding is bad. If you get really lucky you can suicide and receive the chapter you wrote down, but if you don't maximize your options, you won't get any house if you're on the 2nd bid list. Look it up, or don't, but don't suicide. If you get your 2nd choice chapter, you can always turn down the bid, or you could give it a chance for a bit and drop if it doesn't feel right, but you can't rush again until the next fall recruitment.
