suicide rushing

by: ???

I heard that if you suicide rush you are less likely to get a bid from the house you suicided. Someone told me it bumps you down the list. Is that true?

No. It's not. That's an urban legend told to get PNMs to resist SIPing. The lists remain exactly how the sororities made them.

HOWEVER if you suicide (Single Intentional Preference - SIP), you aren't eligible for a quota addition which are now used. So if you didn't SIP, and weren't high enough on the bid lists of either pref sorority to get a bid, you'd be placed in one of them anyway and that could be the one you're thinking of suiciding. So yeah, technically if you don't suicide you may be increasing your odds of getting the house you want if you're not high enough on their bid list OR the bid list of the other house. But that usually doesn't happen since almost anyone who is thinking of suiciding wants a much more popular house and their other choice is a much less popular house.

ONLY SUICIDE IF YOU ARE OK WITH NEVER BEING GREEK AT IU!!!!!!!!!

I suicided my top house last year and got in. By doing this though it takes away snap bids.

That's not true. You can still get a snap bid if you suicided and failed to match. You just can't be a quota addition.

Previously, this wasn't an issue as IU didn't have set quota, but many houses have now adopted QAs for this year.

It's risky no matter what. Can't predict what will happen. Maybe snap and maybe not...
