Pref round drop?

by: q

Why do some girls get dropped by their top house on bid day if they went to that house’s pref round?

Because the house lists the girls in order they want them and somebody has to be on the bottom ofc the list even if the house loved every single one of them.

All girls that come to pref round are on the chapter's bid list. They are ranked from 1 to the end number (say, 100?). Based on average of all 4 rounds scores. So, since Quota was 52, if you were #1-#52 and put, Kappa Phi Omega first on YOUR bid list, you are guaranteed to match with them. However, if you're number 75, you have to hope that a lot of the girls "above" you chose a different house as their #1. It's a matching game. Unfortunately, many PNMS choose to "suicide" and ONLY rank their top house. This cuts your odds in half of getting a bid. Also unfortunately, it's possible that a PNM is ranked really low on every bid list and matching just doesn't work out in their favor.

If a PNM ranks really low on every bid list, and ends up with no bid because both organizations reached quota before they got to her, she would be eligible to be a quota addition, so that's not a reason why she wouldn't get a bid. I don't believe that those who suicide can be eligible to quota additions though.
