The answer is most likely no, and yes, quota does matter in that. You're right that quota is dependent on the number of girls rushing, but what hasn't been mentioned is the fact that there are suicides and girls who drop, ultimately throwing off quota.

I just didn't find it necessary to explain why the answer was no and frankly I don't appreciate your judgement on my explanation.
You're going to risk people passing judgement when you post - not trying to be mean, but it's part of posting on a public board. As for your original statement, it just seemed to me to emphasize how scary an aspect of Recruitment is (quota) and I don't think it helps to focus on or point out Recruitment as scary. And regarding quota, yes there are PNMs who single intentional pref. or drop, but I believe with the new release figures methodology quota shouldn't be set until after preference, which in that case it would take into account at least the PNMs who drop. If someone is more familiar with that than I am, please correct me.
