Exactly. You have the same chance of getting a bid to your top choice as anyone else who put them 1st.

The only difference is that you are at more of a risk for not getting a bid AT ALL because if you don't match there, you have no 2nd or 3rd choice listed. So if you don't match with your #1, you get released from recruitment entirely.

This is why schools advise girls not to do it, because they know that you lower your chances of getting a bid by doing so.
