Is this the "suicide" thing?
Putting 2/3 is not considered "maximizing your options" and would make her ineligible for snap bids and Quota Additions (they're confusing, there are whole threads on them, but basically, it means that she can get a bid outside of the normal quota restrictions...).

I've suggested this before, but you need to have her check with her local PHC before doing so, to make sure they don't count this as not maximizing...She could put the two that she liked, and then one that cut her first round.
So, say she really liked ABC and XYZ, and also liked GBH, but GBH cut her first round, her bid card could read:
1.XYZ
2.ABC
3.GHB
Since she most likely wouldn't appear anywhere on their bidlist, she most likely wouldn't get a bid from them, but she would still be listing the maximum amount of groups.
Additionally, I wouldn't have her ask her Rho Gamma this (they probably wouldn't have a definitive answer)- I would have her ask either the Greek Life director or the PHC VP of Recruitment.
