It seems like a way for the most popular chapters to get even bigger and vice versa.
I think it is a good change because quota is based on the amount of women actually signing their MRABA and completing the process. The old system did not take into account women dropping out at the last minute. Now you can take a look at how many women match and how many chapters make quota at each number in the quota range and pick the number that has the best outcome. Once quota has been determined quota additions can be used to place additional women who completed the process in good faith with chapters that did the same.

I think that RFM campuses are the most successful because they have a partner working with them every step of the way who can react to sudden changed in retention.

Of course the old method is much easier!
