Let's say you pref Pi Phi and Gphi. You rank Pi phi #1, and Gphi #2. And let's say quota is 105. You have to be in the top 105 on Pi Phi's bid list to get a bid. If you’re not in Pi Phi’s top 105, you’ll get a bid to Gphi no matter where you are on their list. Even if you’re at the very bottom of their list, you’ll still end up with a bid there and will be considered a quota addition. (this is how houses end up with more girls than quota.) Even if you were #250 on Gphi’s list, you’ll still match there if you maximized your options. That doesn’t mean Gphi will get 250 girls. It means they may indeed get their top 105, but a few more girls lower down on their list who didn’t match anywhere. Now, you may be wondering, why can’t you get a bid to your top choice then if you’re far down on the bid list? The answer is, you can, as a quota addition. You can still get a bid to Pi Phi as a quota addition, but you’re more likely to if you’re higher up on their list. Say, #120. After bid day, a lot of girls say things like, “Oh I ended up in XYZ because they wanted me more. Even though I wanted ABC and they wanted me really bad, I was higher up on XYZ’s list so that’s where I matched.” NOPE. That’s not how it works. Pref is the only round where “mutual selection” is actually a thing. You won’t automatically end up in the house that wants you more. You’ll end up in your top choice, but only if you’re high enough on the bid list.
