The 10-8 system allows girls who get all their top choices the opportunity to get to know chapters who are usually less-liked during the first day or two of recruitment. However I don't like that they have to cut from 6 to 3, I feel like that's a major drop! (ETA: Another thought, PNMs could potentially end up with a pref schedule of their BOTTOM 3, which could cause that dreaded heartbreak and crying at the tents, and possibly dropping from recruitment on the spot) I haven't heard anything though about how that has worked out for them.
I don't really see how 10-8 or 10-7 makes a difference. RFM is what will make the difference, the "top" chapters making the steepest cuts after round 1.
