I've said this before, so just a reminder. :) Quota is a function of how many qualified women go through the process. It is not based on how many arbitrary "open spots" there are in a house. New member classes could be 150 if that many qualified women went through recruitment, kept and open mind, and maximized their options. The overwhelming majority of women who do not receive a bid are those who choose not to receive one. They drop out because their favorite houses release them. They don't list all their preference parties on their MRABA (suiciding or listing 2 out of 3). The women who are usually released from all houses are those who may have poor grades, a poor attitude, a lack of care regarding their appearance, skeletons in their closet that make them a PR risk, are so exceptionally shy that they are unable to make a positive impression in the formal recruitment setting, are extremely awkward, etc. These situations do happen, but they are NOT the typical situation. Again, most women who end up without a bid choose to drop out or refuse to consider all houses. Don't let the number of women signing up scare you. There are 15 houses, and you can find a home in one of them!!
