Back in the day, a couple of things would do pnm's dirty. One would be that pnm's could drop sororities, and sororities only had to drop for the pref round. So sororities would keep pnm's coming all week to their parties round after round because it made their chapter look popular and desired. Pnm's who they always intended to drop before pref were invited only for the sake of boosting the sorority's return rate. Meanwhile, the pnm's were dropping their other houses left and right, eliminating chapters where they were actually wanted and had a real shot at a bid. Then the big drop before pref would come and reality hit; these pnm's who had no idea how their favorite houses really felt about them, and had by now dropped all their other choices, were finally dropped by the houses that were never going to carry them to pref, and boom, they had no choices left and were out of the process. So so so much better now where chapters are forced to make the call early and let pnm's move on to houses where they actually have a shot. The second awful scenario was when there was no such thing as Quota Additions and pnm's would be 'cross cut'. During bid matching, as soon as a chapter hit Quota, that was it, the chapter was done and no more bids. Some pnm's would be cross cut, meaning her #1 and #2 choices were flipped on the sorority side - her #1 had her ranked low and her #2 had her ranked high, so both chapters never matched with her before hitting Quota. Nothing else to be done because Quota was Quota. She went all the way through and still didn't get a bid, and she would have been happy to get either house and both houses would have been happy to have her. Heartbreaking and so unfair.
