bid day and ranking

We can't tell you that. Some get first, some get last. Everyone ends up in the best house for them.

The majority of PNM's get their first choice, but around 1/3 or so will get their 2nd or 3rd choice. There is no way to know where you fall on your #1's bid list to answer this question.

Just know that if you decline a bid from your 2nd or 3rd choice, you are ineligible for COB or any other rush activity until August 2017. (Assuming you listed all 3 on your pref card).

My advice: if you get your 2nd or 3rd choice, put on a smile and go to bid day. You've barely met any of the actives this week, and there's an entire new pledge class joining. If you can't make friends in a house with 200+ girls in it, it's your own damn fault. All houses are pretty much the same- you'll have a Big/Lil sis, date parties & formals, participate in Greek events, etc. All houses are big enough to have a lot of different types of girls in them! Put the gossip aside and give them a try if they're on your bid card. And for the love of god - do NOT be the girl who cries all the way rhrough bid day. It's insulting.
